Introduction Compact
The purpose of this topic is to get the resident guru's opinion on floats. Is a small float, tighly held, really the best thing for a stock that's on the OTC:BB? Obviously one with 300mm with no revenue or assets is not very nice, but I hear so many talk about controllong a float will "blow the doors off those evil MM's"". Wouldn't there need to be some liquidity? Small floats, imho lead to easier manipulation.

Thanks in advance for all your comments.
