re: manipulation Hi Golderngecko,

I am wondering why you were mentioning those names. Especially Austock as my broker has informed me that over the past month they have accumulated over 6 million shares and 18.2 million options. Someone appears to be trying to accumulate quite abit of stock without having to declare their hand. If this entity converts all their options they will own close to 12% of the company in just what they have purchased in the last few weeks. That is not taking into account anything that they have bought through other brokers or what they hold previously.
The trading in this company 10 days ago suggested that someone had a bit of interest however that interest has subsided. Maybe they are waiting to see what the resource reports says before going further.
I think the next 6 weeks could be very interesting and look forward to the company releasing a top 20 share holders and option holders as normally happens before the AGM.
