James, it's been my understanding that typically when you buy any shares of anything out there the MM fills your order even if they don't have those shares in their efforts to be the ones to handle that transaction. They then will square up as quickly as possible. It used to be a free for all so to speak.. They compete with each other for that transaction and the first to get there gets the business. No expert here but that's what I was told. I wouldn't worry about it. not even sure that's what you are talking about. Hope it helps.
