>> when people who make up the market decide to wait until the end of summer to start trading, er selling again?

Brian, of the threads I watch on SI only two people have indicated selling anything in the past 2 days. Both stated their reason is they felt prices will drop. So one shorted for profit, and one sold a long position for a loss. And both sold after their stocks had already come down 20%-30% from a week ago.

edit. The fact of my response does not mean that I meet your requirement stated below.
