(Point / counterpoint) Ruffian - I think your posts about the marketmakers and their grand schemes at manipulation are a "crock."

I do not mean this to start a big "battle of the carefully crafted insults" here (although -- that is probably a forgone conclusion).

I just do not believe this stuff from "Floor_Trader."

As you may recall, I have worked as a trader on Wall Street, and these stories just do not make any sense to me.

It is possible that things have changed since the last time I was involved in trading on a (so-called) professional level, but -- given everything I know, I interpret things as follows :

Floor_Trader (or his associates) are personally long QCOM on the close today, and are fabricating or embellishing a story to try to give QCOM an incremental (tiny) push for about one minute on the opening tomorrow.

Jon.
