Wick, correct me if I am wrong, but isn't it also one of their tactics to 'scare' investors into selling and then they pick up those shares? And if someone has a 'sell' order in at a low price can't they manuever the price down to that sell price and pick up those shares?

TIA

Thank you Wick. I ask for your indulgence as I step through this.

So now that we've looked at the volume starting from May 18th (the day the bomb was dropped) through yesterday, we see volume of ~468mm. What leads you to the conclusion that the MMs have accumulated 350mm shares? Why not 300mm or less? Why not 400mm or more?
