Again, the constant daily shorting is done to provide liquidity. The report referred to stated that short volume was 87%, but it had a friction factor of zero. Which means their is nothing abnormal about the trading.

"If Friction Factor is abnormal, it means that more buying than selling caused the price to drop, which is evidence of manipulative activity."

As it states, since the FF is not abnormal, there is no manipulative activity. So, the constant daily shorting by the MM's is not abnormal and as such, is not affecting the pps. Just my opinion at least. It's all bunk.
