RE:The market knowsWell actually I don't think the market always knows. The share price could be falling because of momentum traders jumping in and out, bots pushing the price around, manipulators in the know pushing the price down before good news so as to create a big bounce effect on good news, or... Who the heck knows?! I think a more accurate statement would be that we the poor slob long term hold retail investors, we never know why the share price moves till after the fact.
