Iggy, I never said that "a share price is a direct reflection of a baby biotech's value." The value of a company is only one part of investing. This isn't simply a math equation. Investing is a combination of different things, including speculation, calculations, fear, greed, company assets,etc. If you really believe that "the share price is determined by those who make money from the share price being "x" at any given time", as I quote from you, then how did you as an investor or trader, decide to invest in ADXS? Wouldn't your investment in ADXS be purely a crap shoot? After all, you don't know what prices are good for these manipulators to make money do you? If the market is run by these manipulators, then the real worth of ADXS as a company is meaningless. The only thing that matters is what price is good for these manipulators, and they will manipulate the price there. Therefore it doesn't matter if ADXS has any products that will ever have any marketable value, and it doesn't matter if ADXS has good management or not, and it doesn't matter if ADXS is in talks with other companies for a partnership, so why even discuss it? Market forces don't apply. The only thing that matters is what price is good for these manipulators. Because, as you say, the market value of a company is purely determined by manipulators who put the price where they need it to be so that they can make money. So then how can anyone ever make any decisions as to whether to invest in a company or not? They may as well go to Vegas. So I guess that would answer the question I had about what you meant when you said CALA is a good example of a microcap "that was pummeled by manipulation". But I still would like to know what you meant when you said "they loaded up and watched it take off". Who loaded up and what did they load? How did these manipulators decide it was time to end the drop in stock price of CALA and for it to go back up $19? Is there just one manipulator or several? And how do they coordinate this illegal activity? TIA
