RE: A puzzle... All it akes is for 20 "doctor friends" to throw in 50K in the company for the published reasons and your PP is complete. Chump change for them.
They probably wanted more but getting more would dilute their own investment. So the compromise is set a base price of .50 cents and buy everything else in the market.
The stock has only been "really" trading 11 days. The 11 day moving ave is only .33 cents.
Days are numbered to get the remaining cheap shares.
