I have been buying GROG periodically through TD Ameritrade with no problems over the past few months. The only problem I have had is to get my Buy order get executed under the Ask. And every time I tried to buy more than 10,000 shares at any one time, I would get a partial fill.
Another colleague has bought shares through Fidelity. AGAIN, NO PROBLEMS.
Obviously there have been trades going on. Where are they buying the stock?
I have bought and sold through e-trade with no issues.
I am still optimistic on grog, a few of my best investments have been in stocks that missed their filing. The stock prices went down and I bought because I was willing to take the gamble . In those cases, the companies did not file on time because they did not have capital to file (like you suggest). But when the funds came in the stock price went from depressing and boring to a big increases in the prices and trading volume. I believe that they are about to finally get revenues from one of the distributors they have announced. And I am willing to take the risk.
