Masterbeat Corp (MSTO)

[Dr Blunt]

It appears once again the DTC holds more $MSTO shares than the entire float.

Currently numbers indicate:
Held at DTC 820,529,715 03/24/2022
Float 565,462,515 08/17/2021

While one could argue the TA hasn't updated the float we did reach out to them some time back and they said it was current. Perhaps the OTC Markets hasn't updated their page to reflect a current date? Nonetheless, there is an older article (2005) worth reviewing that will help enlighten your views on the appearance of stock holders selling into the bid but rather than the ability for MMs to borrow from the DTC and sell into the float (retail market).

Perhaps after the short read ones perspective might change regarding who is really depressing a stock price. Current action shows CDEL selling into itself (Ask into the Bid).
