Olympus fails, RL shadow run Options

[Snow_Fox]

Just sharing news out of Japan that seems like it could have been a real shadow run. The camera company Olympus is in real trouble. In the last few days it's stock value has dropped by 66% and it is about to be delisted on the tokyo Stock exchange.

A couple of weeks back a high ranking gaijan in the company discovered what he thought were irregularities in the book keeping. Serious issues about reporting losses. He reported what he found and his superior, a senior VP at once fired him. Apparently this guy kept good notes, and I thought I was the only person who kept a dead man switch on my files, and it all went public. The VP had been ochestrating for years that they were hiding loses and failing to accurately report their findings. Evidence is that the president didn't know but there are criminal charges pending on the VP and his agents and the company is on the edge of collapse as investors and regulators express no faith in the company books. which is amazingly bad considering none of this affects the quality of the cameras the company produces. Being any part of htis could be a great run-finding/hiding the evidence. getting rdi of/protecting the whistle blower and finally finmding/hiding evidence or protecting/implicating various company officers. i mean maybe the president did know but he just hid his trail better.

Lastly I got this from European news agency's. the Japan Times on line, that plugs itself as the west's window on Japan made NO mention of this at all.
