RE: Holding the price up.I have compared PTU to CVV and the best buy for a long hold would definitely be CVV. PTU is going to be giving a private placement out soon to an investment company no doubt. They (Octagon)like others then begin playing with the stock to make it look like the price is headed upwards. PTU does not have a large volume of stock movement therefore very risky and seems to be just buying and selling of a couple of stockholders. CVV on the other hand has a larger volume of movement though I believe is manipulated as well. If one looks at all past placements of both companies and others as well, you begin to see a pattern of great manipulation to gain $$. To me it is alot of talk and no action. Which presently does not make for a good investment at this time. These are my opinion's of course.
