$SMCI So where did this news of Super Micro being "Raided" come from? I've tried to delve into where that originated.
At FIRST it looked to me and perhaps others that it originated with Barrons. Barrons, a division of Dow Jones, is a sister publication of the Wall Street Journal. They're also heavily affiliated with CNBC.
So, one would expect that they would be a reliable source of news, particularly with that kind of implication to impact a company and the trading in it.
Delving further though into it it seems that Bloomberg was simultaneously reporting the same thing. Again, they're someone you would normally expect to be reliable source.
So, was it Barrons getting it from Bloomberg or vice versa? Just taking the story verbatim without their own research into it?
Seems like it may be a bit deeper than this. There is an international news agency called AFP. Like the AP in the U.S. (associated press) and Reuters in the UK they report international news.
