AND all the heavy volume, a lot of buying, as it rose for no apparent reason, at the time, from .0001/.0002 to .002ish, sat there a couple weeks I think, then the merger PR was released.
Buying started slow and over the weeks it went crazy, took the PPS almost to .11.
I'm looking forward to seeing why all that buying was done, way more than retail many days.
I agree, there is a reason ALL of this you've mentioned, and more, has happened.
