Yes, for people who time things correctly there will be profits had by all. But the largest going to the longs. When a stock is truly on the run MMs are not as likely to manipulate as when it is on short runs/stagnant. Stocks tend to move toward true value, despite manipulation. Eventually, if a stock truly is undervalued, such as we believe is the case here, you interest enough longs, including institutional investors once the stock can uplist, that so much of the float is locked up there really isn't much room for the manipulation of MMs.
As long as the stock stays OTC in pennyland, then yes the manipulation will be higher. But don't be confused, they may take advantage of runs, but they certainly cannot control them. If they really could we wouldn't see these 5,000%+ runs that have happened even recently, case in point BBD*. The longs typically hold through the ups and downs and if they picked the right stock, they end positive. The MMs and flippers take their small profits, occasionally large, and get out quickly. Really, those who stand the largest chance of getting screwed are the short term holders. Those who buy in too high and sell out too quickly. Longs bank on true DD and patience. Flippers bank on TA and charts. Short termers just rely on hype and dreams.
