Not entirely true Cthulhu. The penny market is dom
Post# of 75002
The traders engaging in the quick flipping of shares for profit most often don't care what the long term prospects for a company are. It's not the business they are in. It's all about near term, and usually, but not always, relatively small wagers. Most of these traders wouldn't be very good at determining a good long term prospect because practice makes perfect (or better at least), and on average they are not practiced at the skill of determining companies or brands with great long term growth potential.
There will always be exceptions, but most just aren't doing the buy and hold, at least not long term. Most are just momentum hunting, buying @ support and selling @ resistance. The type of investing dominating the big board stocks is very different, although both types exists there also.
Since the actual cash flow in penny markets is normally much smaller, it opens up a major opportunity for what I like to think of as just another form of cyber "piracy" which is executed by sleazy "companies" or organized groups of market milkers who DEFINITELY manipulate the market, using misinformation/trickery and downright slanderous lies.
Their "tools" are the bashers that BiggestJimmy referred to, and coordinated buying/selling/short selling with enough money/shares to over run that which is changing hands day to day in the particular stock they're working. He's right as far as I'm concerned, he just didn't delve into the whole long winded story.
Thing is, there's a LOT more money flow on the big boards, which makes them much less appealing to "the penny pirates". lol Anyhow, they can't rob you if you don't sell in the red. With RMHB, hold for the gold.
The other part of that manipulation in pennies is a "necessary evil" while companies use the BB to raise capital. Market makers agree to take on the job of "banker" and provide liquidity, or trade flow. They will keep the stock in a "maintainable" range based on several of those factors you listed and just plain buying or selling pressures. They don't agree to this for something fun to do. It's all about profits, and as they perform a service to these companies, they're going to make money. They can and do offer up plenty of irritation to impatient traders. If you're long on the stock it shouldn't bother you. Hold your shares while they grow the company and reap the rewards.
Rocky Mountain High Brands is without a doubt an excellent buy and hold investment for speculators willing to spend some time. Those who see the huge upside will invest and relax, putting their quick flip bets elsewhere.
