I have no insider information, but with all of this I’m thinking BUY BUY BUY!!!

Why else would people be trying to hurt their stock other than to make an opportunity for someone to swoop in and make a killing?

Short-sellers sometimes publish real or made-up negativity about a stock so as to push the price down.

Then they can close out their positions at a profit regardless of whether the underlying business is any good. In fact, it's kind of better to pick a poor business for this since it's less likely the stock will spike organically for some reason.

That's gambling. The right way to invest is to see if you trust the company to make a profit long term, not buying into speculation. It can go right and you make a buck, or it can go spectacularly wrong. Just like with gambling.
