All penny stocks get manipulated. The ones with big volume more so. There are so many games they play. Like I said only a company that builds a big successful company can beat them. The others will probably have a big run or 2. Yet years later they will be another cheap ones that crashed, never made money and going nowhere. Many have done r/s or gone under after years. Unless you build a highly profitable and successful company eventually they die as no one plays them anymore. SPNG will get played up and down for many years.
