i was looking at it from the point of view of pumping then dumping. I think those kind of groups, in the end may help some but then you once again have those that buy in at the top. If the group is not pumping and then dumping i could see the effectiveness. Lets face it not many are pleased with the current share price, unless they have funds and the will to buy more shares.
