I really want to know what Pachter's hidden agenda is. He's not an idiot.


actually he is...

I agree with this.

Almost everything he says turns out to not happen or it happens the other way around lulz xD

That is no proof of him being an idiot. There is considerable evidence against. He continues to be employed at a well reputed financial institution; he continues to issue paid reports on the videogame industry; the press continue to give his quotes attention and space. If he was just incompetent neither investors nor the media would continue to pay him to do what he does. His firm's monthly sales estimates continue to be accurate.

He must be gaining something from this media exposure and the kind of outrageous claims and bad advice he dispenses. Either the claims themselves are influencing the industry in some way he benefits from (stock manipulation, or being paid by some involved party), or the media exposure in general from his persona is valuable to his firm.
