Market makers and specialists sell to the public at the highest possible price and buy from them at the lowest possible price.I think what Grace is reffering to is the fact that small traders rarely get a good deal. If some news hits a stock overnight the mm's gap it up ridiculously high and sell to the small traders till the volume is gone. When the surge of small buyers is gone the price will fall. The mm's sold or shorted high and when the public sees they don't have a moonshot on their hands they will sell back, often for less than they paid.
