Yeah. I'm with you. I can't see the conspiratorial aspect of the markets. I've talked to a couple of floor traders and a market maker. Those guys are too stinking busy to think about manipulation. I'm not saying that they don't make a run for the stops during the mid day lunch time doldrums, as much for kicks as anything, but I just can't see the big time manipulation thing.

On the other hand, some of the big houses routinely front run customers and load up the day before making a big upgrade, etc. Now this, is manipulation, but it is the cost of doing business. But a conspiracy on the floor???? I doubt it.
