TORONTO, April 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Quantum BioPharma Ltd. (NASDAQ: QNTM) (CSE: QNTM) (FRA: 0K91) (“Quantum BioPharma” or the “Company”), is pleased to announce the appointment of Kevin Malone as an advisor to the Board of Directors. Mr. Malone brings a vast wealth of successful stock trading experience, especially in manipulated companies, from his years of wealth management.
About Mr. Kevin Malone
Mr. Malone is a 2nd generation financial advisor with over 40 years of family experience in wealth management. This combined with his deep entrepreneurial background he launched Malone Wealth in 2021. Mr. Malone focuses deeply on pattern recognition skills and data research to differentiate himself from other financial advisors.
His investment philosophy is based on rigorous research, disciplined risk management, and a long-term approach that seeks to maximize returns while minimizing risk. His Firm identifies undervalued assets and sectors while tactically rebalancing investments to unseen macro conditions.
Kevin has grown his following in communities fighting market corruption in recent years and wants to continue that fight forever. Kevin also started a charitable fund that he plans on using to get personal finance and financial literacy implemented into the US Public Education System. He believes Americans were always at a disadvantage when it comes to finance because they were never taught it. This is unacceptable to him, and he believes everyone should have the right to learn personal finance for free.
Zeeshan Saeed, CEO of Quantum BioPharma said, "We are thrilled and honored to welcome Kevin Malone as an advisor. His wealth of experience, especially in naked short squeeze strategies, will be an incredible addition to our team of experts fighting the banks and investors engaged in this type of stock trading activity and manipulation”.
Mr. Malone says, ”I’ve seen firsthand how naked short selling and the unlimited liquidity privileges granted to market makers can devastate my clients' investments. In 2021, when multiple brokerages removed the buy button on GameStop, I witnessed millions of dollars in client nest eggs and retirements vanish—simply because Wall Street got caught cheating. That moment changed everything for me. I committed to becoming a fiduciary who actively fights against market corruption. When I learned about Quantum’s mission and their work to cure MS, I immediately knew I wanted to be part of their fight. This is the kind of battle worth joining,”.
