Faulty comparisonSimple: Don't be tempted to trade illiquid stocks. Don't even try to look at them.
Heck, the YTEN example previously mentioned isn't even in the Russell Microcap index
You should see the shit that trades as OTC! It's like a ma and pa diner decided to go public and issue stock... Market cap under $0.1M. Useless liquidity. High volatility.
I see the open at around 7Here's something today. Not exactly what Im talking about, but YTEN halted and apparently trades 1700 shares at 15 (opening print???) , up from 6, and immediately back down to the 6's.
Fair markets?
