No play today on EPIC ? What a circus. This is the old Platinum Software - a perma POS - The segment on Squawk Box this morning really crossed a line when Greg Whoever screamed about EPIC like he was freaking having an orgasm. As an afterthought he reminded the viewers that he owns 1 million ( yes thats a MILLION) shares and a 3% interest in the company. He was allowed to sing the praises of this POS (sorry you longs) for what seemed like 10 minutes and Mark Haines chuckled as the early trades revealed that the stock was soaring. It's one thing to talk about a stock that you like, but this went overboard. I really think that small cap stocks should have another standard and a disclaimer should come up that says "please be reminded that when a guest recommends a small cap stock with a thin float the price may rise rapidly and fall just as fast." I watch this station every morning and I really felt sickened by the back slapping, hey kid just made a few mil chummy way the host handled this. CNBC loses major points for this and I feel for the granny in Utah who bought at the open all excited. Anyone who didn't sell this AM had to be asleep at the wheel. They preannounced big losses - "earnings" due out Feb 2, a classic P&D -

Infostream, some of your information is wrong about VASO. The highest VASO's stock has ever been is the high 3's, so this guy couldn't have brought the stock down from a high in the 8's as Asensio has claimed. I would also be highly suspicious of anything from Asensio. With all due respect to the shorters here, Asensio is a professional shorting firm, perhaps you all know them, and I have grown very wary of their information, saying that it is biased is mild. I held NSOL through its downturn last year and Asensio put out frequent press releases about NSOL that were highly misleading if not outright wrong in order to help drive the price down. NSOL's current price speaks to how accurate they were about that one.
