It's safe to say, for good or bad, the most significant change in VLA in the last couple of years is the levels of "big fish" investing & "playing around" with the stock. This is a good thing.

We are definitely on some of their radars & with every result (& buy n sell) the news spreads. Even with the potential "dirty tactics" they play, this stock can only go one way over the long term with the continued good results (IMO).

So, what (besides making money) are MS trying to achieve here ? And is it on behalf of themselves or someone else ?

It's all over my head & I need someone with much more skill & detailed knowledge of the games they play to layout some scenario's.
