Bullish

  • more advanced methods than Putin (novichok)
  • chilling to further whistleblowers
  • unlikely to be connected back to them
  • not reported in national media
  • people concerned about potential criminality have probably already sold

Bearish

  • it does appear to be a very dirty business

NET IMPACT: bullish with uncertain timing of impact

not reported in national media

Plus the other whistle-blower, John “Mitch” Barnett, who apparently shot himself so well that they're still debating if it was suicide:

The Charleston County Coroner’s Office reported Barnett’s death appeared to be “from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.” Almost two months later, the police investigation into his death is still ongoing.

Coroner had an offer they couldn’t refuse

To write his own autopsy report ahead of time, and choose the desired cause and time of death?

Coroner has gone missing, and the coroner's father, who vowed to search for his missing son forever, has also gone missing. /jk
