We discuss the anti-short seller rhetoric that\xa0pops up every few months, the impact of social media on the rise and fall of companies, and the impact of stock-based compensation and adjusted earnings.\xa0\nAs we wind down, Jim shares his concerns about the commercial real estate sector, and Bethany gives a preview of her book releasing this October.\xa0\n-----\nFollow Meb on Twitter, LinkedIn and YouTube\nFor detailed show notes, click here\nTo learn more about our funds and follow us, subscribe to our\xa0mailing list\xa0or visit us at cambriainvestments.com\n-----\nToday\u2019s episode is sponsored by Farmland LP.
