You seem to have a lot of background in working the short market. The pump'n dump thing is interesting. How does that work? In the case of BAAT, are we to believe that all news is contrived to fuel the pump? Then when the stock rises, holders dump millions of shares? In order for the principals to benefit, they would need to be dumping unregistered shares or run the risk of SEC censure, wouldn't they? Is this what is happening here? Or is this a case of a legitimate start up company unable to escape the drag of a group of market makers, (who short the stock, and paint the tape) whose overriding interest is exploiting their licenses to steal and "separate the marks from their money"? Given your keen eye at diagnosing these types of situations, I would sure like to have your opinion. Is your certainty that this company is destined to fail based on the activities of the company or the market manipulators?
