RE: minipulation Isn't it funny...if you or I bought say 3k to 5k worth of shares on the ask..The bid and ask would not reflect the last price as a "gain".In other word's if the stock was bid .01 to .015 and we bought at .015 the trade would not show up as the stock having made a gain.I always get a laugh at how they can control what we see on the bid and ask as well as the last price paid...Merry Christmas to you and all....glta..
