2 and 4 are the lost probable explanations. However, this stock is at .0001, so 4 seems to be redundant. I have been investing for a long time, and antics like this are not random. They are calculated, taking advantage of public forum to manipulate and pollute public traded stocks. This is an example of the treachery of the market. A cesspit that harbors and protects the flawed aspects of investing. It is a reality, and it is here. A person with no investment in a stock should not care about where the company fails or succeeds. The presumption is that there is a motive, and it certainly is not dealing with the personal monetary position of that indivual.
