No wonder?, we've seen this before. What we never know is what Broker these companies use?.......I doubt its E-trade considering they were fined $36m a few months ago for front running.........Knight Capital on any number of occassions should have been suspended from trading, but as opposed to the regulators doing this they are either fined or the regulators go after the individuals of the company. What we need to see are some MM's getting their licenses revoked, fined and jailed, they operate with almost impunity, and if any are guilty for stacking the trades its these guys. When they are hired to sell S-8's or 504's they do everything they can to see these companies raise the cash at the buyers expense. Its boiler room tactics, like you said, $60,000 does wonders for stoking the fires.
