They Will NeverWhoever "they" really is will never own all of the stock. they can ceretainly own a substantial number of them but even if they owned, let's say, 1/3 of the outstanding shares there are far too many others at varying points of entry including insiders who still have a number of shares on their own.
Essentially they have pretty much dried the available shares up as they keep playing with the shares they already own ...There are 10,000,000+ shares on the Bid side and (not) coincidentally almost exactly the some number of shares (to the share) on the Asks. At this stage they might be gobbling up the odd 10,000 shares or less if you look at the volume of shares being traded at a particular moment.
At this rate they're going to soon starve themselves for pennies ....when that happens and positive NRs arrive at the same time they'll have no choice but create a run just to make some decent money.
It's might be crazy ...but it is the reality!!!
