Deep inside a private conspiracy theory maybe, but not in real life.
The rational observer need only place an order for as many shares as he wants and see how quickly the order is filled to realize the truth.
Ask at .0001 and no bid is outright proof that the glut of shares on the market has completely overwhelmed the minimal demand.
Unfortunately it is the 'direct' part that drives reality and the world. If one can buy all the shares one wants to buy at the lowest price possible then some 'indirect' fantasy is sort of irrelevant, don't you think? LOL
