Hahahaha. No maybe just maybe, the company absorbed Rohm & Haas divested itself of several debt burdens and clearly demonstrated a well thought out plan that convinced investors to get on board. The whole time the price was increasing the message boards only intensified in their negativity. You know why? Because at the end of the day the fundamentals and mgmts decisions didn't line-up with the negative message being portrayed by so many and potential investors saw through the BS. So no, I get the point. Apparently you are the one not following. I've gotten sooooo tired of the hollow ascertain that little ole Patriot Scientific has continued to be the target of bashers for the last 3 years? Yes that's right, a company with 400 million shares, a revolving door of CEO's and has never posted a positive year over year has remained the primary target of pumper and dumpers? I could potentially buy that if it lasted a few months but to argue that those kind of people have hung around for years concentrating their efforts on keeping Patriot down is laughable. If we saw wild fluctuations in the S/P your theory might have some weight but, this S/P has been on a downward trajectory for years. I don't buy for a second that all these people are wasting their time on a penny stock looking for 2 cent gains.
