H-D International Holdings Group (HDIH)

And a bit more with the volume please? HDIH

HDIH is clearly not trading any sort of substantial volume, only (222,900 shares traded since split 1/5/208) see link below
So we know that the company TRKG did a reverse split and a name change in ANTICIPATION of a reverse merger with HDIH. See post #7097

What seems to be happening here? We know that HDIH is trading thinner than Graphene due to the available registered (formerly named TRKG) shares but how does this explain the spread? I'm glad I asked...Read the entire article and see if there are any similarities here. You might just surprise yourself!

They could careless whether the stock is at $83 or at $0.23. All they care about is the action thus being able to sell stock at the offer (The high) and buy stock at the bid (The low). To increase their profitability, they make the spread as great as possible on as many shares as they can especially if the volume falls off.

How they figure it is when the average dumb money buys shares in a company, the MMs feel or rather know with some certainty it is very likely that dumb money will want to sell back those shares relatively quick on the slightest drop.

What the long-termers do to a stock is surprise the MMs because instead of falling the shorting has no effect and the price goes up. Now that puts the MM at selling low through shorting and thus having to buy high in order to cover.
