Are there market makers on the main boards in the US as well, or just the OTC?
There has been some bashing over the duallisting and that Merkur should never have happened, but there is no naked shorting on Merkur (and I'm not sure there are anyone offering "proper" shorting of Merkur-ME) and also no market makers.
Basically we have no idea how many naked shorts there are on OTC, and we don't know how much of the volume on OTC that's market makers, but it is clear that Merkur - more or less - follows OTC.
This means that Merkur indirectly is manipulated by the market makers on OTC; they can have deals between eachother that they'll undercut eachother to bring the PPS down, scaring ordinary investors to sell, and then recover their naked shorting by the scared investors? Am I way of that this might be a possibility?
I.e we should get rid of OTC? (upgrade to the main board that is)
