They drive the price down for financings, not up.

Nobody wholesale wants a premium. These are not underwritings, they are blowouts. You, the retail investor, end up with the sucker stock when/if it tanks. There is always a 3 month hiatus built in on agreement with the broker that he can get out and let the stock settle back down to cover his illegal short into the market prior to his selling deadline and post too. Don't play his game and you can forget two financings. Only part of the money is made on the "underwritten" price. The rest is made preselling the stock to clients in order to drive it above the financing price. When they have sold approx 3 to 4 times the subscription without buying a single share, they then let the stock drift down and pick it up for delivery. Break this cycle on them without warning and you will have to leave town in a dog cart.
