in 2009 with an AS of 1B and an OS that would vary early in the year (mgmt converting pref'd shares to common) to the *onslaught* that would begin in earnest at 11 am on 9/15/2009 .. EXPHtraded a total of 4.511.107.567 shares
again this is *key* .. for all of 2009 the AS was 1B and in essence for a good part of 2009 EXPH's OS was 980/989M the total volume traded in 2009 for 12 months was 4.511.107.567 shares
-- fast forward 6 months on from 9/15/2009 when mgmt would raise EXPH's AS for the first time as a public co. thru this past week (NV SOS mgmt raised AS to 3.1B tho' shares have yet to be issued by TA) .. so using an AS of 2.8B and last OS info out of TA b4 holiday of 2.779.024.576 shares
and using my trusty 10 digit calculator to add up dec's volume courtesy of quote media .. then adding that monthly volume to the other 11 months' shown courtesy of finra
the volume traded in EXPHfor 2010 TOTAL = 4.924.153.636 shares if one takes out the 2 frenzies done in dec (both record setting btw) for 244.820.123 (12/22) and 180.994.129 (12/10) the volume *traded* on EXPH for 2010 .. actually is less than what was done for all of 2009 by 12,729,183 shares
regardless even with those 2 *frenzies* added in .. the difference is only 413.046.069 shares traded for the entire year .. hmmmmm
so let's see here .. we have a co. that is legit that has indicated that mgmt nor any co. insider has ever sold one share .. that didn't *dilute* any shares until notifying shareholders of their intent when ETC couldn't be spun off (march 2010) ~ that they would be raising their AS (and would continue to do so in 2010) that *amazingly* essentially did the same volume in 2009 as in 2010 (which unlike 2009) did have 1.8B shares added *LEGITIMATELY* by mgmt vs . the COUNTERFEIT kind .. hmmmm
what exactly does that show folks?
i know what it shows me .. without gross and egregious and absolutely ILLEGAL manipulation of EXPH's stock .. the volume in 2010 wouldn't even equal what was *traded* in EXPH in 2009 .. even with 9 months of an additional shares *legitimately* added into the OS .. hmmmmm
but more interesting to me is that i strongly suspect that transparency will reveal that mgmt and insiders do indeed hold a significant chunk of EXPH shares .. and while capitulation may have been *hit* upon occasion .. it certainly wasn't the norm for EXPH sor in 2010
if anything it would appear that i am not alone in my beliefs and others have been adding shares of EXPH at select price points in 2010 :)
one last piece of info (and if i have time tomorrow) or later on in january i'll do the breakdown of trades/concentration done at X pps
remember from this post that the pps was at .0003/.0005 this past summer
and since it's easily accessed trades done on EXPH at .0003 = 208,615,102 shares .. trades done on EXPH at .0002 = 755.439.151 shares and trades done on EXPH at .0001 = 91,965.964 shares for a TOTAL of 1.056.020.217 shares or 21.44 percent of what was traded in EXPH in 2010 and with the *exception* of 3 days in JULY 2010 .. this 21 percent of EXPH's YTD volume *traded* at .0003/.0002/.0001 was done from November 9th onwards .. which *coincidentally* included 3 of the 5 YTD *record* setting volume days .. 11/29 .. 12/10 and 12/22 ~
