lowman, my Schwab SSP did report a $.99 100 share (1) at 15:59, thus my 'thank you' post#12836. However, the closing trade was reported as $.90. I think your trade did not get reported since it was less than 1 (100). Oh well, at least it's making today an UP day!!
I don't doubt the manipulation theory. But to what avail? Nobody is rushing in to take advantage of the lower prices. We sit at an 88/99 bid/ask with 7500 total shares traded 2 hours until close. I have no valid answer.
