Short-selling guru Citron says won’t publish research again

Short-seller Andrew Left, whose company Citron was one of the hedge funds to spark this week’s battle with small-time traders over GameStop Corp, said in a YouTube video on Friday that his company would no longer publish short-selling research.

The latest twist in a saga that has sent shock waves through Wall Street as amateur investors pile into heavily-shorted stocks like GameStop and AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc, the move is a major change of course for one of world’s best known short-sellers.

Left, the author of dozens of investigative reports on S&P 500 over the past decade, is credited as helping pioneer the tactic of betting against a stock by publishing research that encouraged others to follow his lead and profiting when they do.

OPP investigating ex-civil servant accused of defrauding government $11M in COVID-19 relief funds

Ontario Provincial Police say they are probing the case of a former senior IT employee, who allegedly created hundreds of accounts to funnel at least $11 million of Ontario COVID-19 relief money into them.

Criminal charges have not been laid, however, documents in a civil claim from the Ontario government were filed with the Ontario Superior Court of Justice just before Christmas claiming Sanjay Madan, a former computer manager at the Ministry of Education, his family members and associates fraudulently obtained the money intended to support Ontario parents and children during school closures.

Philadelphia Tasks ‘College Kids’ With Distributing COVID Vaccines, Brings Disastrous Results

Philadelphia is home to some of the most venerated medical institutions in the country. Yet when it came time to set up the city’s first and largest coronavirus mass vaccination site, officials turned to the start-up Philly Fighting COVID, a self-described “group of college kids” with minimal health-care experience.

Chaos ensued.

Seniors were left in tears after finding that appointments they’d made through a bungled sign-up form wouldn’t be honored. The group switched to a for-profit model without publicizing the change and added a privacy policy that would allow it to sell users’ personal data. One volunteer alleged that the 22-year-old CEO had pocketed vaccine doses. Another described a “free-for-all” where unsupervised 18- and 19-year-olds vaccinated one another and posed for photos.

Now, the city has cut ties with Philly Fighting COVID, and prosecutors are looking into the “concerning” allegations.

Lefties Love Science: Teen Vogue Tells Girls to ‘Practice Your Magic’

Whether you are a good witch, a bad witch or prefer not to share, Teen Vogue is here to answer your questions about real-life Wicca.

Last week Netflix released its live-action reboot show Fate: The Winx Saga about teenage girls with supernatural powers who help one another navigate life at a boarding school for magic users. After watching the series, Teen Vogue’s resident astrologist, Lisa Stardust, felt compelled to clarify the inaccuracies and unexplained elements of the series. Stardust writes, “as a practicing witch myself, who knows many magical people that identify as fairies, I was surprised by some of the inaccuracies of the series.”

The Astrologist wanted to make sure teen readers know that they can travel between dimensions so long as they don’t forget to do an energy cleanse for safety reasons. She claims “This is something that was not touched upon in the show. And, it’s very important. If not, chaos can start….”

HBO Plans To Release Documentary Critical Of China’s Handling Of The Virus

What might have happened if China had quickly reacted to the coronavirus and warned the world what was happening instead of spending several critical weeks covering it up? It’s impossible to know for certain but it seems probable the entire would could have been at least a little better off and maybe a lot better off.

That’s the theme of a new documentary financed by HBO called “In The Same Breath.” The film was made by director Nanfu Wang and focuses on the early weeks when we were all just hearing about the virus for the first time:

Cuomo callously addresses COVID nursing home report: ‘Who cares!’

“Who cares [if they] died in the hospital, died in a nursing home? They died.”

That’s how Gov. Cuomo callously responded Friday to the damning state attorney general’s report that revealed his administration downplayed the total number of nursing home residents killed by COVID-19.

During his first remarks on the spiraling controversy, Cuomo said, “If you look at New York state, we have a lower percentage of deaths in nursing homes than other states.”

“A third of all deaths in this nation are from nursing homes,” he said.

“New York state, we’re only about 28 percent — only — but we’re below the national average in number of deaths in nursing homes.”

“But who cares — 33 [percent], 29 [percent] — died in the hospital, died in a nursing home? They died.”

Cuomo’s stunning remarks sparked a furious backlash, with Timothy Dunn tweeting: “My uncle died in a nursing home from COVID two weeks ago.”

Why The First Amendment Needs To Be Applied To Social Media

Since democracy was created, it has required a public forum, from the Acropolis to the town square on down. That place exists today, for better or worse, across global media. It is the seriousness of the threat to free speech that requires us to move beyond platitudes like “it’s not a violation of free speech, just a breach of the terms of service!” People once said “I’d like to help you vote ladies, but the Constitution specifically refers to men.” That’s the side of history some are standing on.

This new reality must be the starting point, not the endpoint, of discussions about the First Amendment and global media.

White House dodges question about Yellen’s fees

New Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen made a lot of money — $7.2 million, precisely — over the last two years by making speeches at events held by banks and other financial institutions. That is bound to create a conflict of interest — or, as official Washington likes to say, the appearance of a conflict of interest — when Yellen, as Treasury Secretary, deals with all those companies that have written her big checks.

Tufts U Student Government Resolution Blaming Israel For U.S. Police Violence

The Tufts University chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) has proven itself to be one of the strongest advocates of “Deadly Exchange,” a false campaign started by anti-Zionist Jewish Voice for Peace, claiming that Israel and American Jewish groups are responsible for alleged unlawful police violence in the U.S. against minority communities. Tufts SJP reframed this campaign by claiming Israel directly threatens the “safety” of students by “militarizing” and training American campus police to be racist.
