Let's just say I think that if you investigate, you'll find that it's not just the PR firms blowing out their BBAN paper....

You're right about the MMs having trouble with the volumes - don't you have fond memories of all the unfilled trades and locked and crossed markets when no one could get through? <g> Sure, they shorted the pigs all the way up, then dropped their bids when the panic selling hit, but their intention could not have been to completely kill the stocks. In fact, my own research shows volume and speculation already starting to creep back into the OTC-BB the last several days, and I expect a full-blown rally after 5/16 at the latest.

I don't know anything about AARO, but if you think back to before the last 6 months, one and two-day spikes were the norm on the BB (rather than the multiday gravity-defying feats of megafloat hype stocks that we witnessed in the first quarter). It takes lots of traders and an even larger number of naive "greater fools" piling in day after day to create multiday runs, and they're not back yet (but they will be).
