That comment was in relation to the 'Sky is Falling' posts trying to create panic so that they can Buy at a cheaper price.

When we see shares for sale there is no differentiation between the shares that are actually 'Legitimate Shares' and those that our MMs have created out of Thin Air to Maintain Liquidity or Manipulate the SP.

It is important to understand the OTC Market Maker trading system. The MMs are Wholesalers, those Buying & Selling OTC company shares are the Retail Customers.

So when you purchase shares of BIEL, either at the Ask or Bid SP, you are buying from the MM's Inventory of BIEL shares not from another Retail shareholder. The same principle applies when you Sell shares, everything goes through the MMs

The MMs can place whatever quantities they desire in their Bid/Ask Sizes. The 'Size' does not have to reflect their actual Inventory of shares because the MMs mandate is to Maintain Liquidity in the companies that they cover. If they run out of legitimate shares to sell they can sell Naked Short shares or buy shares in the Market.

If you are a MM would you want spend money buying Legitimate shares or Fill Buy Orders with Naked Short shares that cost you nothing and worry about Covering the Short later in the day, tomorrow, or next week?

The MM Naked Short/Cover Later business plan goes out the window when significant events occur for a company that trigger heavy volume and upward SP pressure.
