Blodget May Face Criminal Charges
from the hype-'em-up-Harry dept
Apparently, federal prosecutors are getting ready to press criminal charges against a number of internet analysts, likely including Harry “Hype ‘Em Up” Blodget, made famous for single-handedly pushing Amazon’s stock up to 400 in a matter of days. More recently, he was the guy who was part of the “hype ’em publicly, while trashing them internally” scam at Merrill Lynch (who has paid him a few million dollars to disappear).
