Here is another entertaining theory as it relates to the price, LFB, and, and insiders buying...
The facts are as follows:
(1) The price decline recently does not make any sense at this time, so some of us started thinking that something fishy is taking place including the possibility of some big shark taking the price down in order to takeover GTCB on the cheap...
(2) LFB already owns about 19% of GTCB and is an aggressive outfit with Euros that could buy Dollars cheaply, thus they could be a suitor for GTCB themselves, especially that they have a big colloaboration already..
(3) Out of the blue, insider went on a buying spree as the price collapsed but they are buying in small quantities as if their purpose is to support the price in order to stave off a cheap takeover...
OK, so here is my new theory that could explain all the above: LFB has decided to buy GTCB but they do not want to pay much. So, they started a campaign by some affiliates of theirs to try to take the stock down before they make their low-priced offer. GTCB management got wind of that and decided to fight this process by buying token shares in the open market, and thus encourage the pps to rise and stop the advances of LFB for a low-priced takeover...
Now, go ahead and knock down my new theory but you must admit that it fits with all the pieces, sort of a unifying theory even if it is the wrong one...
