I have a question for this group...I noticed today that 800 shares of SEXI were traded at 1/10 of a cent. That adds up to an 80 cent transaction (not including any broker costs). I'm curious...why would someone make a trade that small? Is this an insider who wants to keep the stock at least semi-active? Or does this person really think he/she will make a good profit (well, if the stock quadruples, and the bid is at least semi-close to the ask, then that'll pay for a grocery item or two)? Or are there people (that can somehow avoid transaction fees) that buy like .50 or $1 worth of every sub-penny OTC stock and hope that some of them make tremendous leaps? Just curious...Brandt
