Some institutional investors establish a significant position in pink sheets such as Farmers in order to find ways to drive up its value. Retail investors, on the other hand, need to know that institutional holders can own millions of shares of Farmers, and when they decide to sell, the pink sheet will often sell-off, which may instantly impact shareholders' value. So, traders who get in early or near the beginning of the institutional investor's buying cycle could potentially generate profits.
