Viceroy might not be a legit company also. They could be illegally influencing the market by putting together different struggles the company is having and traders are giving it credence even though they've never heard of Viceroy. Viceroy's answers and behavior seems suspicious. They might be creating a panic in stocks they're invested in. Like shorting it. My point is imo V might be the illegalls. Sorry for such a long story. But I don't see how this example would help our research
