Will Pershing Square's Bill Ackman show up at the Herbalife (NYSE: HLF) meeting today?

According to Fox Business Network's Charles Gasparino, no. Herbalife said Ackman "isn't an investor." Anyway, Gasparino notes that Ackman is on a scuba diving trip in Burma.

Herbalife is also said to be paying attorney David Boies a "substantial" retainer in the eight-figure range. Boies will be reviewing Ackman's claims that Herbalife is a "pyramid scheme."

Shares of Herbalife are up 3.4 percent early Thursday.
