Just a thought on alternative strategies. We know that there are many organizations/newsletters that will promote a stock to move the price. Anyone can hire them, and I've been told it usually isn't the company itself but a large shareholder. Last May, microcapstrategy.com ran CNEX.
Whoever is soaking up all these shares surely doesn't want an R/S, and may pay for a promo to run the price so they can profit. Kind of hoping.
