Re: Trading

Because this is an extremely liquid stock, I think you would find that the market makers are on both sides of the trading. In other words, they are trading with each other via robot programs. The same shares being traded over and over each day. Their goal being to make a few dollars on each trade, and do it many times each day, since they don't pay commissions, just electricity for the computers.
