Everyone Loves the $100M Deli
So essentially, I get together with my friends take a random business public.  We agree on the number of shares, and then we keep trading the stock among each other, carefully moving up the price.  "I'll pay $10", "ok, I'll pay $10.50", "I'm in at $11".<p>When this gets to a $100 million market cap by doing this, we land a story online about this crazy, useless business that's worth $100 million.  It captures the imagination of hoards of new-found meme stock, one-tap-away, YOLO crowd and suddenly, it has volume.<p>Thanks to this new found volume, I can easily cash out my shares to all the suckers buying this at $13.<p>Am I seeing this right?
