So why didnt you buy 1,000,000 shares at .30 cents and manipulate the market up. ??? It isnt quite as easy to manipyulate the market as you seem to think. Its a case of more people wanted to sell than wanted to buy therefgore the buyers could drop their price knowing that the sellers would come to them. If the buyers wanted to buy more than the sellers wanted to sell the sellers would have raised their prices..
