At 3:59:29 PM, a tiny trade of 4 shares at $0.285 was executed — possibly to set a slightly higher closing price (or create the illusion of support).
But shortly after-hours, a trade executed at $0.280, pulling the indicative/official price back down despite that last regular-hours tick up.This is a classic tape-painting tactic:In-market tiny prints (like the 4-share trade) nudge the closing price or manipulate chart appearance.Off-market or after-hours trades are used to pull the indicative price back down with minimal cost and without drawing regulatory scrutiny.Given that $0.280 was also the dominant buy-side bid, it seems a deliberate move to suppress the official closing impression rather than a genuine market transaction.
Kept the coming. I'm into this price manipulation
