Wall Street Hedge Fund Clowns Getting Desperate

You don't have to have worked on Wall Street to understand that there are "trolls" on this board who are trying to create all kinds of uncertainty and distortion when it comes to the EXAS sales force.

Several small hedge-funds have been short shares in EXAS since the single digits hoping that Cologuard would not ever make it into the Final USPSTF Screening Guidelines. Well, these "shorties" were totally wrong and they got their ass handed to them as the stock rallied from $7 straight up to nearly $23.

These are the same clowns who said that Cologuard would never get FDA approved, covered by CMS, or reimbursed by CMS for more than anything over $150.

They were wrong back then.
And they've been proven wrong this year as well.

But you can still see some of their "desperation" at work, claiming that Cologuard didn't make it into HEDIS (when it did on Oct. 3rd) and how the sales force is being micro-managed, area managers canned, cuts, etc.

This is all part of the typical "short and distort" tactics that hedge-funds use.
Just keep that in mind when reading some of these threads.

 

If there are really short sellers spreading lies here, they better be covering their IP tracks very well. The risk reward on doing something so cowardly and illegal is foolhardy.

 

True.
But when has anyone on Wall Street abided by the law???

The internet is a perfect "playground" for these hedge-fund clowns to play their short and distort games.... especially in the biotech space. I've been a biotech and pharma investor going back to the 1990's. I've seen this movie play out before. Hedge-fund trolls posting all over the internet, including places like Café Pharma.

For example, Whitney Tilson is a small hedge-fund manager who admitted to getting short shares of EXAS at $14 in 2014 and watched them go +130% against him all the way up to $32.80 in June of last year. On his blog, he admits to never covering the trade and being in a lot of pain. The only thing that bailed him out was the preliminary draft decision last October by the USPSTF. He got short again, and watched the stock surge once again against him this past Summer. No wonder why investors have never invested in him with any large sums of money. He doesn't even manage $100 million dollars. He's a small fry and his associates use the internet to "manipulate" stock prices. His track record is dismal. He has a documented track record of letting other growth stocks (like Netflix and Tesla) go +200% and +300% against him. He claims to be a value investor. Yet, he shorts growth stocks that he knows nothing about.... like EXAS.

Two other hedge-fund losers in EXAS are Travis Cocke (Voss Capital) out of Houston and Jacob Ma-Weaver (Cable Car Capital) out of San Francisco. Both small frys in their 20's with less than $5 million under management trying to make a name for themselves. Travis Cocke has been following Whitney Tilson around like a puppy-dog and Jacob Ma-Weaver even spoke up at a CMS meeting, citing totally irrelevant reasons why the CMS reimbursed price of Cologuard should be $350 lower.

These people are well-documented losers in EXAS.
I have no doubt that they and their "associates" have been posting here.... and they sure as hell don't know anything about Cologuard, let alone have any interest in saving people's lives.

Just a Public Service Announcement.

 

Thanks Moan-eesh and Dirty Disgusting Diane. Other than your own hides & bank, neither of you care anything close to saving people's lives either. Public Service Announcement

 

Hello Hedge Fund Troll.
Looks like I must have struck a nerve with the truth???

You are beyond dumb if you think that anyone at Exact reads this trash, let alone anyone from management posts here. Hope you lose everything in your tiny hedge-fund kid.

Signed,

A Long-Term Investor

 

Same tactics in politics. Smart people see through it. Too bad there are so few smart people.

 

Please, long term until when? Until you get your invested capital back! If you invested in EXAS then you are an incompetent investor. You would have seen the lack of strength in the leadership despite the capabilities of the scientific discovery. If you are an investor then you invested poorly and for whatever reason you need to justify your position. I say BS- you are an employee who drank the koolaid!
