Radar Movers: Herbalife Creates Battle of the Billionaires, Apple Sinks Lower

Shares of Herbalife (NYSE:HLF) continue to attract attention in late afternoon trading, due to a battle of the billionaires on CNBC. Carl Icahn and Bill Ackman traded verbal jabs on live television. The issues regarded everything from past deals to how Ackman shorted Herbalife shares. Icahn said, “I’m telling you he’s like a crybaby in the school-yard. I went to a tough school in Queens, you know, and they used to beat up the little Jewish boys. He was like one of the little Jewish boys crying.” Ackman said, “The big issue about Carl Icahn, is he’s not used to someone stepping up to him.”
