Well most certainly there are individuals that try to keep pressure on stocks to wear out investors. Is it happening here? No, the company diluting recently has been the pressure keeping this down. Do MM's use this type of manipulation? Certainly been many cases of such pressure when they are making a market on a particular stock. but is it happening here? No, this is an unsolicited quote stock, the MMs have no inventory of this stock for their own trading purpose. When we go to OTCBB it can happen at that point, but right now you are dealing with big retail and big traders that can control 10% or greater of daily trading.
At some point a unified direction comes along, and without the company selling into it, no big entity is going to keep it down at that point. What will it take to get it there is whole different discussion. As long as we can verify some forward movement the core will stay happy, if the core gets unhappy you will know it.
