James, the "why" for naked shorting doesn't need an answer, because suppressing the share price can serve agendas for several factions on that list. Considering the high volume, the naked shorting was likely a violation of market rules. The key question is, which faction(s) did 51% naked shorting today? Then there is the three shares trade after hours that drops the posted trade price close a dime lower. That came right after a large trade so the chart looks like it was large volume at the lower pps. Yikes! Do such things matter?
Best wishes and IMO.
