At what point does this become securities fraud? Stock price manipulation by using obscene concentrations of wealth to prop up sibling companies?

There was some fraud in Canada where they were buying up their own stock so they could continue receiving subsidies or something. I don't know what happened to that but it was in the news.

They applied for electric car refunds in batches, and worked through a massive fund when it was announced that it was being closed off, in a matter of a few days.
