A Small Voice In Cyberspace

[Bird of Prey]

Just a thought...

If the brokers can (and obviously are) doing this (selling short) with 144 certs...

What are they doing with all of those trillions of shares held in the street name in millions of customers accounts? Could they have shorted those too?

Could it be that *they* decide when the market (or a stock) has gone up enough... then *they* take their profit by starting to short against all of those long shares?

Then when *they* have forced things down and used the margin calls to wipe out everyone...the whole process begins again.


"The world runs on a river of money...I'm just trying to get to the bank of the river to dip my ladel in."

Look at a 100 year chart of the DJ30 and apply the above. Start throwing in a little historical perspective in and tell me what you see.
