RudySunseeker, This is sort of re: your message. Just this morning I see that the MM's purchased at .95 yet someone 20 minutes later sold at .94, I am totally without comprehension as to how this works!! "sell at a loss and make up for it in volume"????? Can anyone point me toward understanding of the whole MM scenario? My un-educated take is that they act as middle men who buy and resell stock at a profit, is that the case or have I totally missed the concept? Thanks Pete
