A couple of thoughts. #1 It has been speculated here by many that we(longs) would be better off with the PPS higher, $3-4, when permit is issued. Kry might then jump to $7 or so, but with PPS under $1 will the jump go there or to $4-5. It is that spread that I believe the buyout major is working on to keep the price down. If the Buyout needs 51% of stock that difference could be $150 - $300+mm($1-2+/sh). With those #'s they can well afford to loose $10mm or so on either shorts(separate account) or selling 10mm shares from position. #2 We don't know who Tradewinds or any of the other large positions represents. Agood deal of those shares and the recent buying may be owned by the hidden Buyout entity. The more we learn of the subtlies of the market , the more we learn what we don't know. These people are ruthless and they stack the deck. The One thing WE(longs with DD) have is what a mentor of mine told me 30+ years ago "When you're Right: You're Right" and all the manipulations they throw at us won't change the fact that the final outcome is "You're Right".
