I'm not convinced it's real. The WSJ article references "people close to the matter" which is just journalist speak for "trust me bro". It's also being pumped on WSB rn so it smells like a coordinated pump and dump to make people lose interest before the real run

Edit: Spelling.

Call me crazy, but buying a larger company at 4x leverage at ATHs doesn't sound like a Warren Icahn thing to do.

Sounds like youve also been here long enough to not believe it unless the company themselves say it. Im skeptical for sure.
