SCO share price also went up when it was revealed that the MIT rocket scientists teams that supposedly examined scox's code, was a hoax. SCO share price went *way* up - about 50% - on the news that the "infringing code" shown at SCOForum was a hoax.

It seems that the more scox gets caught in lie after lie after lie, the higher scox's share price goes.

SCO is fully and squarely into bubble-land at this point. The share-price has no connection to reality, the major reason it's going up is that it's going up.

This is classical. People see they're going up, and buy, hoping that they'll not be the biggest fool (i.e. there'll be an even bigger fool willing to buy something worthless for even more money later on)
