I've heard it said that the market makers and the shorts create what is called liquidity. Guess who probably said that? The reality is that this creates a serious problem in the pinks. If you find a company like HNSS and you want to invest long term, it's not like investing in a stock that is considered above board i.e. trading as a big boy stock. Because of the lack of brokerage interest it's sole increase in pps value is off news and not public support. So the volume is news related. The pond scum apparently hold license to feed freely at this level because it is fair game, they can... I would'nt mind not having any volume here in times of quiet and then going up or down as the news dictates. Without the bullshit artificial ups and downs. But that is a fair and equitable desire not to be confused with pinks. Most pinks you don't mind a little hand waving, causing liquidity, but not the good ones! To speculate what the company is possiby or should be doing is just fluff. Not realistic or useful and instills either wishful thinking or unwarranted doubt. In my opinion the outstanding shares number is where it should be, the float is low, Black knows this and reducing it would not cause positive results as stated by punk153. He's probably not reducing the AS because it looks good to a potential buyer!!! In short, theres nothing to plant your feet on in the pinks, if you don't like it get out of this level of trading and get in a more predictable stable investment. If you believe in this stock and accept the rollercoaster ride that comes with stinky pinks then average in and wait it out. I don't know about the rest of you but this year everyone else is going green but I'm going BLACK!!!!!
