    I agree they won’t care about 1 stock, but the board absolutely cares if many people start selling below what they believe to be market value

      Large traders have different rules and prices than us plebs. Our trades don’t even reach the market places, they’re being internalized by brokers, who were the ones not actually selling you an actual share to begin with. They’ll be happy to take your loss without affecting market prices in the first place.

      An unfair market place is what the whole diamond hands thing is about. So no, I don’t think board members care what us small investors do.
