For discussion: my opinion would be that with the new month, another large block of shares was handed over to the financier; who, following their business model, dumped all the shares on the market and, as usual took the S/P down to the usual .0012 and .0013 lows. Also, I can't prove this, but most of the buying is people who are already shareholders like us, with no new interest to speak of. (I myself mailed a check yesterday and will buy a few more if it stays at this "stink bid" price as you call it.) Some day we will break out of this Groundhog Day pattern. I just hit the ten-year anniversary of buying my first shares of Liberty Star Gold.
