Unfortunately
there’s no precise answer to this question although potential investors should
be aware that the more outstanding shares a small company has, the more buyers
it takes to move its stock price higher.

spoke recently with newsletter
writer Thom Calandra, who shared his thoughts on this topic. He said:
“So
who are the companies that are doing the best? It’s the companies that are not
financing through equities. They’re even selling part of their asset or they’re
using debt in a creative way that doesn’t suck down equity, you know, as in
swaps. They are doing partnerships, once again, asset sales, deep pocket
investors from Japan or other off-take countries that might take industrial
metals. Anything but equity financing, stay away from any company with a share
base that’s above 70 million or 80 million shares.”
