World Surveillance Group Inc (fka WSGI)

Trading in the OTC Market (or the Pinks where WSGI trades) is a bit different than trading on a "listed" National Security Exchange where buy/sell orders are "matched." As Pinks are "unlisted" and usually thinly traded, Market Makers on the OTC maintain liquidity by carrying an inventory of shares.

So yes. . .someone bought the shares. . .the MM. . .who holds those shares in inventory until they can offload them at their ask price. In OTC land, just because a retail investor is able to sell doesn't mean there is a retail investor immediately on the other side of the transaction picking up the shares.

"All orders of OTC securities must be made through market makers who, instead of just matching orders, actually carry an inventory of securities to facilitate trading."
