Either way manipulating stock prices is illegal. I’m thinking it was market makers trying to cover a short.
Unfortunately it’s easy to spook traders who are just watching the price drop without seeing the small number of shares being traded at the beginning.
I’m getting sick of the games by the MM or whoever and trust me they don’t want the attention.
The SEC investigation currently $ARYC is ongoing and led to multiple people getting caught manipulating the stock. I don’t think this is anyone who currently holds stock but if it’s the MM and they read this be warned.
