SZ- If what you say is true, then NYSE specialist's can never get hurt with bad news ATB on stocks that they "match", right? In other words, when a stock opens gap down after bad news ATB, the specialist just come in and match trades, taking the 1/16th spread only. <<There is no such thing as MM accumulation as you suggest with an NYSE stock. It is traded with a specialist who just matches buy and sell orders.>> I would appreciate a more detailed description on a NYSE market specialist. You mean to tell me they "don't" have much of, if any, inventory that they can accumulate/sell shares from? Just doesn't mess with what my understanding on their full activities. Regards, QuadK
