>>I would speculate that the stock is being pumped in an attempt to arrange a private placement.<< When all else fails, blame manipulation! Yeah, that's it. Somebody is plowing millions into the stock and into thousands upon thousands of options contracts, both puts and calls, overpaying for EVERYTHING, to insure that there's attention drawn to CYOE. It's a multi-million dollar marketing campaign by...by....well, by somebody who's not an insider but who is willing to contribute MILLIONS to the manipulation cause! Right? lol. I'd rather trust the market: That says there's something in the works and it will materialize before the Feb. 18 option expiration. Why else would someone pay $1.50 for a Feb. call option that's still 5% out of the money with only 2.5 weeks left? That's an implied volatility of 198%!! Good luck. I hope the pending news is positive.
