TELEPHONE RECORDINGS RELEASED BY THE SUN
Recordings from 2003 have surfaced of superstar Michael Jackson giving possible stock advice to an anonymous source about Marvel Entertainment.
It's unclear if the recording was a direct recommendation to buy the stock, attempt to take-over the company, or another related venture, and certainly there is no direct evidence that Mr. Jackson bought or held Marvel Entertainment (NYSE:MVL) stock. But the fact that he was possibly pushing the stock to someone in 2003 when it had risen over 650% since that time shows he was right about the value of the company and its business, just as he was right in acquiring the Beatles catalogue.
Jackson was previously a part of a group of investors, including former Marvel head Stan Lee and his business partner Peter Paul, who altogether tried to buy Marvel as early as 1992 but failed. The 2003 tape reveals that Jackson believed Marvel's stock price was cheap even in 2003, when its market cap was at around a half billion. Marvel was acquired by Disney for 4.24 billion at the end of 2009.
The recordings also reveal his fears for his life and the mafia.
The complete transcript:
"It is Michael. Ahh, it is 4:30 in the morning here that’s why I sound very sleepy (laughs) and I’m really worn out… but please check the message I left a day or so ago. I am very concerned. I don’t trust that man. We think he’s bad, we think he is Italian mafia. So please… we must be smarter than him. So please, help me with this. I need to get that, those funds so I can do that, I wanna be away. . . I don’t want to be in Neverland right now. Even though it’s a beautiful place."
"I am very embarrassed. But, um, there should be that I have some finance that’s coming up January, February 2nd, and um… that’s why I, we need to have on Sun Screen to the account 150. Please don’t be mad at me for… It’s something that’s very important to me and my family, because I’m afraid for us that I’m being stalked and I think it is (name withheld)."
"It is Michael calling. It is very important, I want that 150 in that account for me, because… I am very concerned about my life. I am hearing a lot of stories that (name withheld) is still trying to sabotage me and I want to be in a different environment and, um, I’ve found a place that I like and now and um, I want to be away for a while where they can’t find me. So please help me, help (inaudible) help me, and, um, more important than (inaudible). We are brothers."
"If you get this message call me immediately at 805 *** ****. What I want to talk to you about is very top – top secret… I need a German or Swiss bank."
"I would love to work together, but as far as timing… The, uh, I really feel in my heart – we must move as fast as we can because the, on the film side of it, ah, I don’t know if you have been reading the paper… but Marvel already have sold off their internet rights and the fact that stock is so low now.
They put out Spider-Man, now they got Incredible Hulk coming, they got X-Men 2 coming and they also got Spider-Man 2 coming. It is going to jump, it’s going to change! I mean, you know… and this huge frenzy for superheroes… and all the things we can do… I wanna get in before the stocks… we have to jump in now. The timing is perfect. Nobody’s talking much about it."
