Some people benefit if the "official closing" price is up, and some benefit if it is down. Everyone has a different agenda. If the price hovers around 25 all afternoon, and 2 minutes before the market closes someone buys or sells at a different price (higher or lower) to make the price change at the close -that's a painted close. Hope that helps.
