Unfortunately Yes [manipulation is like a disease all over stock market...?], however, traders must carefully study the individual penny stocks and accordingly invest near the bottom. It might be a long wait to ride upwards but eventually, every stock that fallen has to raise up unless it is totally a worthless company..

I think both SFOR and AXPW technically bottomed (chart patterns), both these stocks lost 99.9%, there is nothing much to loose than gain from here on.......that is the bright side of it, but every one must do their Due diligence.
