Is this really true? Can't every side of a trade be right? Let's say that Ancor
becomes the rocket we all hope for. If person A bought 1000 shares at 4 and sold
it at 8 to person B, who in turn sold it to person C at 16, ..., couldn't you claim that
that all trades were good for all parties?


This is wrong. Whoever sold Person A must be short 1000 shares and taking the loss, unless of course it's the company itself in which case the company sold stock at 4 which is now worth 16, they left $12 on the table
