Oliver Stone can write the story. as it has to be a conspiracy! Tax loss selling, from someone who has 2 mil shares of an internut stock that is up a quadzillion % or, or just some one who likes to lose money, and is making it up in volume, someone who mis-understood the teachings of buy low sell high, and is dislectic. has reversed the logic and is getting rich in reverse! there, take your pick!

Jim, there are many explanations for the trading pattern. Only the actual buyer and seller know what is really going on. However, the trade below the bid could have been a late report. Are far as someone trying to accumulate the stock, a buyer could buy say 100K shares up to a certain price and then offer say 25K shares at the right time to drive the stock back down. In this case he now has a net 75K shares and the stock is back down where he can begin to accumulate more as people lose interest and become discouraged. Accumulating a large position without significantly moving the stock price is a real cat and mouse game. Port_man can probably give you some more and possibly better explanations.
