Why Herbalife Stock Just Crashed 15%

I admit that every time I see Herbalife (NYSE: HLF) in the news, I can't help but smile just a little bit. The name takes me back to the first time I heard about Herbalife, while living and working in Moscow in the '90s, and saw a flyer on a lamppost announcing products for sale from "Gerbil-Life," the closest Herbalife could get to transliterating its name.
