grizzy: that's some theory.

The company was shorting their own shares and used a R/S to cover? I've heard some great conspiracy theories over the years, that one ranks right up there. I might buy into it if they had no products, no revenues and no real chance of having either of these things in the near future; but that's not the case.

How's about they did the R/S because they sold 99% of their A/S which eliminated the option of selling shares?!?!? There's a reason companies go public: sell shares to raise money. That option was gone when they unloaded the remainder of their A/S in July to Hope Capital and Xcel Associates. Since you say you expect furhter dilution, it makes more sense they did the R/S in order to do just that, sell more shares.

serfdom

Grizzy.........

...it is my opinion that the stock was on the SHO list because Ingen was short selling it themselves, and used the R/S (and the way it was released) to allow themselves a cheap position covering.

Yes, and the R/S also allows them to repeat the entire process all over again. Plenty of headroom now for minting new shares, IMO.
