WLGS was manipulated down and then went from .20 to $4.00

FTRK was manipulated down from $2.00 to .18 then manipulated back to $1.375 (i.e. MM's created panic selling AND buying)

SHAL went from $4.00 to 2.25 then hit $20.

NUKE was manipulated down from $1.25 to .11 and now is back to $.75.

IGHS was manipulated down from $2.00+ to .50 or so and back to $3.00.

and so it goes over and over.

THE INVESTING WORLD TODAY IS COMPLICATED AND requires a cool head and a strict adherence to continued analysis of REWARD TO RISK ratio.

Short term thinkers or those wanting to "get rich quick" will often believe bashers or naysayers (who have never proven themselves to be accurate perveyors of information) and SELL.

These same people will also believe Hypesters and BUY a stock with way too much money without doing DD.

They buy too quick and sell too quick.

Many people get nervous if news does not happen quick enought for their liking, when they have NO idea of the intricasies of running a business, or how sometimes good news takes the longest to make happen, especially if the CEO is proceeding prudently.

Market Makers, who most of the time DO create an orderly and fair Bid and Ask will sometimes really manipulate a stock, because they can and because they want cheap shares for the eventual run-up later or to cover their short positions at cheap levels.

It's complicated folks and it is very hard to have to wait for stocks to realize a good or great return. It's takes continual analysis of a stocks current REWARD/RISK ratio and then patience, imo.

When CAOL was maniplated down to .25 x .34 yesterday, it made the REWARD TO RISK ratio look real good.....real good to me. LOL!

I just wait and take advantage and keep doing my own DD.

There are always risks in the BB and sometimes the biggest risk is NOT doing your own DD.
