MM'S: CHDN SSGI PUMA NOBL LFCM STXG

collectively did on katx for the month of june (latest known)
out of Total Share Volume done of 103,474,141 shares
the grand total for 5 MM's 787,457shares

CHDN ~ 15,000

SSGI ~ 56,000

PUMA ~ 255,875

NOBL ~ 415,582

LFCM ~ NONE

STXG ~ 45,000

what they are doing imo with at least 4 of these MM's
is they are being used to stack the ask (or bid) but
based on the total lack of volume *traded* thru them
for the entire month of june .. they have nothing

compare this data to the primary MM on katx for june

NITE ~ 50,644,286 approx 49%

it's worth tracking which MM does what over a sequence
of months .. the primary will ALMOST always be NITE

but seeing who is utilized each month and then comping
to *legit* volume traded .. goes a long way towards
avoiding the usual re: smoke and mirrors
