Coincidence that Carl did the offering on IEP today? NOT -- he just wrote a check for $506m to exercise the HLF calls early. He now has clearance to complete his opening 25% position. News came out after the close.

HLF ready to rip next week as Carl has likely already told the dealer delivering the stock to pull the borrow on all 14 % on the shares he now owns. A lot more of the borrow will become unavailable next week if he buys more. Might want to get out of the way soon, ya don't want to get steamrolled.

Also some speculation Carl is messing with JCP bonds. Professor Carl about to teach Billy boy a lesson.

JCP taking the pipe AH. Sharks smell blood. Coach Carl has his team playing hardball. Billy boy thought it was a softball game. Feel sorry for his investors. Undoubtedly a few are having second thoughts. This will someday be the number one case study in B-school. Not to mention having the ingredients for the huge grossing movie "Often Wrong But Never In Doubt" Maybe he makes money from that.

Herbalife not Loeb top five By MICHELLE CELARIER

Last Updated: 1:12 AM, March 5, 2013

Hedgie Dan Loeb yesterday offered more evidence that he has exited his Herbalife position entirely.

The mogul’s monthly report to investors, a copy of which was obtained by The Post, showed that Herbalife was no longer a top five position or a top winner in February — as was the case in January.

Loeb recently boasted to his former pal Bill Ackman that he earned $50 million for investors on Herbalife, The Post reported exclusively last week.

The sizable profit on his $270 million Herbalife position indicates he has closed out the position — although Loeb has not confirmed that. He is not required to report such a move.

Loeb’s $11.6 billion Third Point gained 1.2 percent in February, for a 6 percent gain in 2013. Ackman’s Pershing Square was down 0.1 percent last month; it’s up 3.6 percent in 2013.

Ackman’s $1 billion Herbalife short is 9 percent of his $12 billion firm.
