FY ACKMAN... G T H💩💩💩🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

This is the same guy who lost so much money last year. He is doing all of this for his own motives and potential profit.

Like most Media Stations CNBC will probably have him on more simply based on all these bashing (and appropriate) tweets. This guy is short the market and preaches fear. Garbage interview that should have been cut off.

Ackerman is CNBC’s Chicken Little. The last time markets were crashing CNBC used him to help drive markets down. He’s a piece of 💩looking to capitalize on the crisis. Don’t let him scare you out of the market. Let him chirp and you get ready to capitalize on the crisis too.💰

Why does he get any air time? He has no credibility.

Ackman was selling his book yesterday. He is a false prophet and he did a great disservice to our great country and CNBC was his accomplice.

So this Bill doesn’t think this is a “buying opportunity”. Interesting.

THAT was a pathetic interview. Looks like Bill wants to cover his short positions. SKY IS FALLING! SELL SELL SELL!!!!!

Hilton its going to zero. I wonder how many millions if not billions he is short on Hilton?

He’s short!

The most entertaining thing I saw today was the price going down in real time as he said “Hilton is going to zero” and then going back up in real time as he next said “I’m buying more of it.”

who the hell has 30 days worth of food he is freaking crazy that would cause food riots

Why are we giving this manipulator the time of day? He is nobody. Please stop repeating what he is saying. He obviously has financial gain in this. He should be investigated.

He sounded insane and was crying for help. It was shameful the way you let him carry on that way for so long.

probably shorted his own investment I imagine...

Everyone missed the part where he talked about his dad. He sounded scared.

This was the most irresponsible financial journalism in history of market interviews! The SECgov needs to subpoena Ackman trade blotter over that last 72 hours! elonmusk got in trouble. They need to investigateBillAckman

So why has he been buying Hilton? soundscrazy

Hell nah with this DBag

Fear mongering. He is likely short the market.

Ackman has been wrong many times before.

FFS are you going to bring on one of Jerry Springer's guest next? The guy was a train wreck.

This is such a horseshit tweet. This is not the message viewers got from that interview. One of the most destructive pieces of journalism ever given the concerns and urgency on the matter. Boston_SEC must at the very least look into this interview.

Cooperman crying at all time highs..... Ackman: Hold My Beer

Another big name predicting an economic doomsday..

StockMarket futures are crashing hard. At limit down. Tomorrow looks to be another brutal day on the markets in response to the potential economic catastrophe that God's coronarovirus has brought. Wall Street also cares about the HUMAN catastrophe. Right MAGA needs mama.

99.9% of Americans cannot afford a 30 day shut down...all payments would have to be deferred not suspended...

out and out scare mongering. Scott Wapner allowed it to go on and on. shameless.
