(2013 *volume* .. approx from memory 36M and change partially washed with 2014's *36M and change* .. imo)
===============================
the holders of record (not necessarily individuals per se) was 542 (pre P2O being wrested back) in March 2013 .. in March 2017 .. holders were 482 (loss of 60 *holders*)
2013 .. 542 /89,890,063 .. works out to an avg of 165,848 *shares per holder* (again not an individual investor per se)
2014 .. (RH in as CEO) .. 475 /96,292,243 .. works out to an avg of 202,720 *shares per holder* (again not an individual investor per se)
2017 .. 482 /124,756,158 .. works out to an avg of 258,830 *shares per holder* (again not an individual investor per se)
note the increase to 482 up from 475 (2017/2014)
P2O's founder holds 3M~ PTOI shares
besides company's founder .. i know of at least 10 individual investors who hold more than 1M PTOI *shares* respectively and countless others who hold *respectively* between 500k to 700k PTOI *shares* .. so as YTD *volume* decreased *significantly* .. actual holders of PTOI *shares* increased from 2014 to 2017 .. while relentless PPS compression was *orchestrated* by NR
resulting in record setting YOY decreased *volume*
when a stock is taken too low and those efforts don't succeed in actually parting *shares* out of actual shareholders .. the end result is NR being UPSIDE DOWN and .. little to no *volume* (as almost every daily tape of trades .. reveals)
PTOI ~ Annual Volume Totals:
2009 ~ 7,188,642 ** (mid April start)
2010 ~ 20,478,838 ** CSTI imported/first hit piece & complicit *letter* of 9/28/2010
2011 ~ 37,204,277 ** NON RETAILs' *set up* .. (includes April's still record setting *volume* of 8M+)
2012 ~ 26,989,328 ** aromatics & mgmt change out
2013 ~ 36,808,995 ** P2O wrested back mid August 2013 .. wash trading 101 with 2014
2014 ~ 36,381,060 ** wash trading 101 with 2013 .. note lower than 2013
2015 ~ 22,275,997 ** note *volume* significantly lower than 2014 .. PPS relentlessly compressed
2016 ~ 19,759,799 ** note still the lowest YTD volume for PTOI with lowest PPS
2017 ~ 13,540,583 ** note still the lowest YTD volume for PTOI with lowest PPS
==================
perhaps just me .. but i'm curious to see the number of *holders* in the forthcoming K's filing ..
