RE:RE:RE:So...fasttrack5, I think someone is suppressing the price so that they can continue to accumulate a position of size that might allow them to eventually challenge other significantly large positions like those held by the likes of Frost, Roger and others. The whole idea of price suppression is to make the news environment so negative for shareholders that they just can't continue to take the chinese water torture anymore and sell. You have to admit that seeing the stock price continue downward day after day for the last few months in the face of positive news releases has been pretty depressing.
I also think the manipulators know that there are a lot of tight fisted shareholders with significant positions and they are trying to shake out some of these substantial positions while they can in the absence of trial data.
I have taken the mindset (for my own sanity) that this is just going to continue to be supressed until one day an offer is made public or the volume of U.S. buying increases dramatically. Until then, price might still rise on positive news releases prior to an offer but the price suppression program will continue to try and keep the ball under the surface of the water.
