Another instance may be seen by looking at the chart for ANLT (AMEX) This 40+ year old company has fallen out of the mainstream. Lost most of its technical talent who a few years ago made it the premier supplier of Spatial data integrated with terrestrial data for pipeline and electric utility industries. At present the company has no debt and a small float which makes the share price very easy to manipulate. Starting with the SE Asia Tsunami in Dec 2004 pumpers/dumpers have used every natural distaste to post messages tending to indicate that ANLT would get new contracts to assist in recovery or new warning efforts. Never has such happened although this ploy has be used 8-9 times since that big one. In the Indonesian disaster they pumped the stock price up more that 4 times to a high of almost $9/share. It collapsed precipitously. But if one looks at the trading volume it becomes evident that trading is not the cause of the rise and falls. It is naked shorting. Today the news of a new Japanese earthquake will be used tomorrow to pump once again.
