Fj - "Maybe they have a plan which requires the share price to stay at this level...Just a guess?"
I am not a securities lawyer, but controling the price of a publicly traded stock sounds illegal to me. Plus, I don't think SV would have said "it's up and to the right from here" if they were planning to control the price at around a dollar.
I think the low price is just traders and the lack of people who know about the stock and its potential.
