Future, I would love a jump in share price...and I expect some...however I keep debating myself over what to expect, at least in the next month. I too expect them to have buyers lined up, the thing I keep questioning is that the timing lines up pretty close to a share unlock. Will they convert, wont they, who knows...but I have to assume that most will. I fear that most of the initial buy in will be countered, or controlled around, the restricted shares hitting the float. So I am tempering my expectations a little bit while remaining optimistic.

Many people who's share price goes against their expectations cry about manipulation and shorts or naked shorting. It's an easy target since no proof is possible and group thinkers will pile onto the idea. It makes them feel better about their stocks poor performance by blaming someone else. There is far less manipulation and shorting than most people believe, but then they would have to take responsibility themselves.

Actual short interest is available from FINRA every two weeks https://otce.finra.org/otce/equityShortInterest and is all I care about in that regard.

I have had people call out manipulation on transactions I have made in various stocks. I often hold more shares than most people, so they think it must be a Market Maker manipulating or a "Short". Well no, sometimes it is just a larger shareholder than them buying/selling for their own reasons.

All the best,
