71650181 : I don’t know who MM is in your rant. But it is very obvious what happened today. SIDU announced some very good news which caused the stock to go up, and as it was settling in the high twos, they announced a new stock offering, which caused the price to drop dramatically. The only people at fault for this is SIDU. These people may be good at space stuff, but they are shit at running a company. Anybody with any brains would have told them let this news play by itself for a day, maybe two. Reward your stockholders who have been with you for a while. Instead, they jump at the easy buck at the first opportunity. That is what is really sad.

71650181 OP : Because one of the large reasons why the stock went down every day last week was incomplete absence of news. There were too many other things going on in the world, and monkeypox got pushed off of the first 10 pages of the paper. Today, we got three separate pieces of news that it is going to take the market sometime to digest. One was the commitment a large healthcare system made in this company‘s test coupled with the response from the Middle East. Two was the news from Australia and the new outbreak there coinciding with the outbreaks last week in different parts of Africa that had not yet been affected. And three was the United States making a commitment to fight monkeypox overseas. Any, and all of these can lead to a catalyst in testing.  Now, if there is no follow on news, then the shorts will have a chance to get out, and today becomes a rinse and repeat the next time there is news. However, if there is follow on news this afternoon, followed on by even more news tomorrow morning,then the interest in the company will stay high, the volume will stay high, and the shorts will not be able to get out quickly enough. This is what happened last month. It all comes down to timing when the shorts can get in and out.

71650181 OP : Fintel’s website updates shares to short. subscribers can also see what the short interest is.

71650181 OP : There is, however, a dark pool of shares that does not report in the same manner. That is how we still get shorting even when Fintel says zero shares are available.

71650181 OP : It’s why I never panic sold the stock

71650181 : Pump and dump by a paid service

71650181 Reddbutterfly : Lately the alerts have been coming out after the first wave causes the stock to go up.  The last two alerts, I was online when the came out and when I searched for the stock no more than 15 seconds after the alert they were already at circuit breaker.

71650181 : Yeah -- It's called shorting. and Fintel reports no shares left,so everything is coming from the dark pool.

71650181 : I made my $580 on this stock. Waiting for a dip to get back in.
