The great stock manipulation mythI don't know how many times I have heard it said that something is being held down by little devious methods, buy orders of 1000 shares and so on. If I could manipulate any share price so easily I would gladly do it for personal gain. It is nonsense to perpetuate this urban myth.
I believe that there is a general wait and see. I have cash on hand and am tempted to buy more but - I will wait and see the results and buy on volume and movement. This is the same process that every investor goes through. It is not manipulation. It is the reality of the market place. Shares trade hands when a willing buyer and willing seller agree on a price.
