So the stock ran from sub $1.50 to over $2.35 in barely a few days and that was okay but when some saw that as an opportunity because it was over-valued that is manipulation?
Short interest as of Nov. 30 was about 2m shares. It ran from $1.50 to $2.00 post this date which means that run may have even been aided by short covering. I guess you have no problem with short coverings that run a stock but hate short sales that recognize over-inflation.
