I don't think there's necessarily any particular reason the MMs are walking the price down from the peak - I think it's pretty standard practice to get shares back from the rise. They probably went short at 1p+ and are now buying all the shares back from bored/nervous punters.
I think on the next news about assets which I believe at least one is imminent? They will mark it quickly back up on any decent buy volume.
FYI they have taken about 2.2M shares net in the past 4-5 weeks.
The mean SP on 24/6 was 0.29p and on 15/8 was 1.23p.
The arithmetic mean of these 2 is 0.76p and the geometric mean is 0.60p
Also the chart very much says "the bottom is nigh".
