Aitch: "Victor checked Vinod out briefly and felt his track record"

All I did was check his date of registration with SI and his previous posts. I also sent him a message on the board and in a PM pointing out that his posting appeared to contain material information that could cause peole to trade, and that several of us had gone to a lot of trouble to try to verify it, and would he explain its source.

I agree that the format appears to ape a series of wire headlines. If the source was an engineer at CPQ, as Vinod explained, why would he do that? I notice that Vinod explains his investment style in words to the effect that he likes to invest in beaten up stocks ready for a bounce. Headlines, like that, if they were widely disseminated, would certainly have caused CPQ's share price to bounce.
