Herbalife (HLF) Exposed!

  1. Every wealthy doctor or lawyer is also a great salesman.

    The issue with MLM companies is no one wants to sell. The process is sold to you as all you need to succeed is to recruit toadies to sell for you. That's what makes it an illegal pyramid scheme, the emphasis is on recruiting other toadies to do the dirty work like selling.
    It's downright devious and evil. Dream theives.

  2. Beyond the legal or moral dilemma; everyone wants to be the recruiter and nobody wants to sell. That's why ebay is full of this sh*t. $90 for $8 worth of protein? And the clown "HF manager" who went long because of the ghetto weight loss clubs. Stranger than fiction.

  3. I'm surprised no one here has mentioned the heavy accumulation volume on the 4th which was also a bottom and the gangbusters accumulation volume on Friday....I thought you guys/gals were traders......

    any shorts should be sweating bullets

    I thought for each buyer there was a seller, silly me. I love your hindsight analysis. How did Friday the 15th look for buyers?

  5. When the hammer comes down, any additional analysis is a waste of effort. We deal in facts, not nebulous price/volume coordinates from yesterday's news.

  6. I stand corrected :D

    I was actually working off of Pekelo's chart that was posted...which was obviously incomplete because it only showed up until Thursday...friday's volume was indeed bearish

  7. STORE HIGH IN TRANSIT

    when the british first started transporting supplies to the colonies

    there wasn't much of a backhaul

    all we had they needed was manure

    which was fine

    until it got wet

    and then it started composting and getting hot

    and occasionally it got so hot it exploded and blew up the whole ship

    so they marked it as "Store High In Transit"

    but sailors are not very good readers and marking is expensive

    so it just got shortened to

    S. H. I. T.

    3 days ago nicely bounced from the lower BB when under $35, now just reaching the upper BB, close to $39...

  10. And a lousy 7% move on this news? You can't polish a turd.
