Seriously, all they really need to do is have the ones targeted by Glaucus valued and say - told you so. If this team had even the slightest understanding of what they are doing they would have - suspended the shares (and kept them suspended), ordered independent reports on the businesses targeted in the report, updated the market 2 or 3 weeks later with the reports and re-started trade. If there was nothing to hide this is the perfect solution. The market wouldn't have hit the share price.
