It seems like those are the two prevailing explanations, Paulson/Fife vs an unnamed hedge fund. Personally I think it depends, there are sometimes long stretchs where the price seems so obviously riveted below some number or other which screams manipulation, and other times when the price spikes for whatever reason and large volume selling appears to knock it back down, which could be accounted for by profit-taking by warrant holders. Our shorts (c'mon, they are out there) prefer the former explanation as explaining everything--move along, folks, nothing to see here, no need to complain to the SEC....
