OREANDA-NEWS. August 30, 2016. Global nutrition company
Herbalife (
NYSE: HLF) today announced the debut
of its latest series of videos that showcase observations by the media
and other thought leaders about the motives, failed investment
strategies and questionable tactics of
Bill Ackman. Observers have
questioned his scruples and ethics, arguing that he has put his personal
agenda ahead of the interests of his investors.
The premier video in the series, "Frequently
Wrong, Always in Denial" posted today on TheRealBillAckman.com,
illustrates Ackman's inability to admit his many investment mistakes.
Quoted in Vanity Fair, one of Ackman's hedge fund contemporaries
stated "There is a saying in this business: ‘Often wrong, never in
doubt.' Ackman personifies it."
"As we approach the four year anniversary of Bill Ackman's unprecedented
market manipulation campaign, a campaign that
Bill Ackman admitted is
costing him approximately \\$100 million annually in just carrying costs,
it is important to point out that numerous respected journalists and
industry experts have concluded his self-serving activism and hubris
appear to be clouding his judgment, just as it has in the past," said
Alan Hoffman, executive vice president, global corporate affairs,
Herbalife.
Hoffman continued: "For close to four years,
Bill Ackman has launched a
well-funded, aggressive market manipulation campaign, filled with false
statements, to support his reckless \\$1 billion bet against Herbalife. In
addition to the investment loss for his investors,
Bill Ackman said his
carrying costs were approximately \\$100 million annually, which when
combined with the more than \\$75 million he has spent on lobbying and
public relations, adds up to real money."

unimpressive record and questionable tactics.
