MM's short the sh*t out of a penny stock and then try to drive the SP down to Trips by spreading FUD (Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt) on the investment boards.
If the company goes belly up, the MM's make a sh*t ton of money.
If the MM's can drive the SP down to Trips, but can't kill the company, they then sell their short positions, and buy Long positions, then pump the stock so it will go back up.
In that case too, they make a sh*t ton of money.
Either way, they manipulate the SP through pumping or bashing the company to make money.
If the company can eventually show a few Q's of increased revenue to where they become cash flow positive, then the MM's stop with the manipulation...
There have been plenty of companies with a legitimate, great product, like Apple Rush, that have been put out of business by MM's.
Having a great product is no guarantee of a penny stock becoming successful if the MM's destroy the company through their manipulation.
That's why I say, MM's are the scum of the investing world...
GO APRU & LVVV!!!
