They keep the bashing going for a very simple reason. Maintain doubt, hesitation and aversion for anyone who has HJOE on the radar as a possible buy IF they come back. Without continued pressure on their part, its out of sight out of mind and if they're wired with a major short position, they get CRUSHED should HJOE come back clean without that doubt from new possible investors.
