I don't agree. They make money on BUYS also. They now are losing those commissions. They are only hurting themselves based on YOUR theory. Going riding now. Maybe next week we go Kaboooom to the multiple pennies lol. Until SC lifts the buy ban then any PR will be wasted. Scottrade is a HUGE broker. Remember 9-11 always.
Well, it's not making money for them right now. They should have done it prior to the 6 week long skid with little volume to speak of. There is usually little or no panic left in the survivors of an onslaught!
