Not intending to be repetitive, but let's take a look at the Mathematics and make a logical argument on existence (or not) of NSS.
May-Sept '09, in the neighborhood of 12B shares traded. Let's attribute 1B to the "longs" probably much more, but conservatively speaking.
That leaves SPNG crooks with maximum of 2B A/S to dump illegally into the market.
Of remaining 9B trades, IMO SPNG was through once illegal shares dumped into market. Based on postings here and elsewhere, at face value it does not appear longs were selling, only buying more. Now let's overestimate and say longs bought another 1B after illegal dump by SPNG crooks.
Who sold them those 1B shares, since (as mentioned above) entire A/S would already be in market and what about the other 8B? Flippers? Would not make sense because this went straight up and straight down, leaving little to no chance of flipping.
So we have a mysterious 8B shares that must be attributed to something. Only logical conclusion is NSS, especially when taking 4 months of FTDs into consideration.
Tell me where I'm going wrong, because this is a puzzle I am taking keen interest in solving...just my nature
