MM's are notorious for shaking nervous investors out of their shares before a run.They do this by naked shorting,creating the illusion that people are dumping.This scares the insecure into selling. When the MM's have enough,or when buying pressure forces them to,they sell the shares back at a nice profit.If that's what's going on now they are not having much luck ,as most here are holding to see what happens.
" Remember to be distrustful" Prosper Merimee {1803-1870}
