Great post Sammy, very similar to what myself and several others have been saying all along. This happens allll day, every day on larger business deals that get delayed for very common sense reasons. It's painfully obvious to see how this deal is coming together if you take a step back and look at the big picture without putting your emotions into it. This is FAR from a pump and dump and you can argue what the exact play is here but there is way too much DD to even mention it is a scam.
These plays unfold much differently than the normal pinky or momo trades. They rise and fall, things happen to delay them for a few days and the almost always take longer than you want them to. Every single on of them work this way unless the company catches us off guard. If you want to make 30-50-70% those trades are all over the place, but will crash the next day, a dirty CEO will take your money, they will post fluff PR's on pure BS. If you want the 10+ baggers that the leaders here work on every day you just have to do your DD, trust and know you have found a great play and then have the patience to let it develop. Grab as many shares as low as you can and wait for the news is how you make big money here.
Again, great post Sammy.
We all have a duty to be bold, to be brave, to strive to live our best life...and to help others along the way do the same!
