Who are you talking to? I just said I have no idea why it is they’ve managed to neutralize upward price per share pressure on so many occasions. I have no idea if it’s intentional or whether they are oblivious. All I know is I’ve been around a long time, and I’ve noticed this phenomenon on occasion as have many others here. You are the one talking about illegal price suppression.

I have seen these conspiracy theories before on this board, which include "The Island Boys" and other supposedly nefarious entities.

FYI Viking, AFAIK I was the one who coined the term.

It refers to the slimy investors many small public dev stage bios need to rely on. Nothing specific to NWBO.

I am virtually 100% certain that these guys commit illegal activities in order to flip shares. Take a look at the CVI and Intracostal filings in late '16 and early '17 and tell me that were legit private investors.

There was a reason that for several years everybody knew a private placement was about to happen because the stock would drop on volume for no obvious reason.

These guys make their money playing this game. And there is a reason why the setup shop in places like the Caymens. Still illegal, but a lot harder for the US to act.

This one issue is not special to NWBO. And does not even reflect negatively on them. It is just the skanky financing game played in this market.

EDIT: This is not related to thread discussion about NWBO intentionally manipulating share price. I do not think that is likely.

There are no Island Boys involved in NWBO!

Linda Powers certainly isn't trying to sabotage her own company. These are conspiracy theories promulgated by their competitors.

Who's actually selling their shares? Novocure insiders!

By the way many F500 companies are incorporated in the Cayman Islands. It's standard practice for CEOs who act in the interest of their shareholders!

Want to invest in a firm that's paying a high tax rate? Go ahead!
