IMO, there has been dilution all 3 days this week. The market maker AUTO has been situated at the inside ask position throughout this week. Plus, Time & Sales indicates two Form T sales after the bell on Monday (465,000 shares) and Tuesday (1,791,000 shares), respectively.
I don't feel this is market maker manipulation, unless you define taking out stop loss orders as "manipulation".
