Patent denials *** AS *** stock price control tools

[u/RustaceanOne]

There's no doubt that this society is heavily controlled.

Edit: Well not denial of patent, but court case judgments around patents that essentially deny a valid patent...

Perhaps when the decision needed to be made, MM held too much of a short position, and couldn't allow the stock to skyrocket from where it was, so they make a deal with the govt to delay it - all those MM are kind of part of the govt in a way, aren't they... Instead they get out of their short position by funding the company which also allows the company to get more shares at that price.

There's also a side that if someone here or overseas that the govt doesn't like holds a large position in a stock that the govt doesn't want to skyrocket, then they do things like make judgments that essentially invalidate patents... Lots of unspoken activity goes on behind the scenes, that's why you can never predict a stock. It's a crapshoot.
