The company does not directly benefit from you buying stock today. But the lender who got the discounted shares last week (or whenever), benefits by selling them to you, and making a profit. SIMH got the benefit previously from the loan that generated the extra cheap shares for the lender.
If there are enough Lions out there to keep buying shares

Hey could I trouble you guys to tell me in a little story as to how our buys and sells affect companies pocket please. Use your imagination to make it simple but yet in a way that it would cover the main facts please. So let's say today I bought 99,560 shares, it had to be some one who sold it to me, right? Now that person either sold at loss or gain who knows, how does the company SIMH BENIFITs from that?
