What Are Blue Sheets?
Blue sheets are formal requests for information sent out by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to market makers, broker-dealers, and/or clearinghouses. Blue sheets ask for information related to specific securities or transactions—especially those that may have affected the price of the security. Blue sheets are often requested in order to determine if there has been any illegal activity or to determine why a certain security experiences a large level of volatility. Like many things in the trading world, blue sheets have now become electronic.

Market Manipulation
Market manipulation is when someone artificially affects the supply or demand for a security (for example, causing stock prices to rise or to fall dramatically).

Market manipulation may involve techniques including:

Spreading false or misleading information about a company;
Engaging in a series of transactions to make a security appear more actively traded; and
Rigging quotes, prices, or trades to make it look like there is more or less demand for a security than is the case.
