The CEO sold all of his stocks shortly before being shot. The company was also being investigated for antitrust by the DoJ.
I'll be so disappointed if this was some intra-corporate bullshit.
I will be disappointed but also
for the new age of cyberpunk corpo assassinations we're entering.
I don't really believe this was actually a corpo assassin. Medical Insurance is too much of a cushy no-competition, no-consequences industry for anyone to have hitman connections. DoD contractors on the other hand...
I agree, I don't think so either. The only person with real motive might be his wife. But the most likely is someone with a grudge.
seriously? where'd you see this
EDIT: nevermind

Exactly the article I read.
Yeah i wouldn't be surprised if it was a paid hit job
Word on the street is United and Caremark will both be broken up soon
Do not short Caremark and you didn't hear this from me
If I short a corporation's stock and they get broken up via antitrust before I'm forced to buy the stocks back what happens?
Sorry I have no idea, I don’t trade myself
