Tiger, tcr forgot to say the 3 billion shares that traded those two days wasn't real either...it just never happened.
What I think - people were probably SO panicked by those "40 million shares" that Ameritrade put out, not only did they sell all of the free-trading shares they owned, they kept buying them back and selling them, over and over again...50 times! I mean, they were REALLY panicked!
Too funny.
