RE:WOW!!!WTF?I'll tell you what is happening and CIBC is the engine behind it. They drive the price down by selling a boatload of shares (with the help of Anonymous). As panic takes hold, they buy the stock at lower values. CIBC is involved at every price point and has made money all day long with this strategy. When the market sees a reversal in the number of shares being sold vs bought, traders step in to purchase and the stock goes back up. This stops the minute CIBC or Anonymous release another boatload of shares to test the low and/or trader sentiment.
The key to CIBCs success is the massive amount of shares it holds for all LPs. Unlike other house CIBC always makes a profit on its trades.
