"Someone wants the shares and doesn't mind paying the extra."

Johnaus, you are exactly right. They'll keep/push the sp up for two reasons: 1, to ensure right issues are taken. 2, like you said, to collect all retail shares. It's possible if retail investors thinks the sp may drop back to 6c then sell into the 7c or even 8c+ if the smart money really pushes (since the volume is extremely low). They'll play all types of tricks to make you sell. After they think most retail investors sold off, they'll push through multiple resistance levels within matter of days, just like how the prices came down in august.
