From what I can see in the picture I can't see a single thing that could justify that stock price. The only thing I can think of is if there was a sudden change in EPS, but from the picture it looks like they have been operating in the red for at least a few years now.

Maybe someone else will have some better insight, I'm quite curious how that happens myself.

Did they spam research, thus improving their stock value? I'm not sure if research sales come up on income.

This looks like an exploit.

I know there's a way for players artificially inflated certain company's stock price using two subsidiaries buying and selling the same stock with each other.

Do you still have the save file? What version is it? I am curious to see what exactly was going on.
