BTW that's my uncle!!!
I sometimes wonder what makes euthors feel so certain to call things (not) for what they are. I always assume that there is a dollar herw or there ALWAYS, to help decide. Which may still be the case here as well, but if so, then your dirtier then you already are.So even if you were able to collect the data on every individual that has interacted with MAR this AM to find out what was in their heads and why they bought, why would you word your story in a way that makes it seem as the stock rose because the CEO died?. 1% and you assume that's the reasoning for it eh? Selfish heartless, may God have mercy on your soul.
