Paid basher confesses in Silicon Investment forum



<< I work for a company called Franklin, Andrews, Kramer & Edelstein in Stamford, CT.
Basically, it?s a Boiler Room much like the one in the movie of the same name. The
idea behind my group is to bash the price of a company?s stock down low enough to
where the group of investors who retained our company?s services can buy the stock
really cheap and perhaps even take it over all together.

Maetryx gets taken by a 2-year-old hoax

<< In the week that followed, lots of the gullible folk still apparently didn't realize just how badly they were being had. So badly that Tracy, the originator of the little hoax, was sheepishly wondering if his prank had spiraled out of control. >>

Yep that post was a fake. But many analysts are the exact same thing except make money the other way - they get their money by pumping up a stock with performance exaggerations, only to then sell their shares or their clients for a profit.
