Sergio: < I'm afraid of saying something stupid, but I will. I think that there were more trades on the table than the MM accepted today.> Why, it's never stopped you before! LOL Sorry, I could not resist! You left yourself wide open for that one. Guess I better watch out now!!! If a market maker is short on inventory of stock and there are not enough sellers to meet buying demand, I beleave the MM can short the stock ( sell, borrow ) in order to fill buy orders. Of coarse the MM will be forced to buy to cover ( which at that time is bullish ) Once the market maker has the prices up high enough, the sellers will come in and the MM will have enough shares to meet buyers demand. Stocks that I have owned where there was a high degree of possable MM shorting to meeet BUYING demand, took of like rockets either the next day or the following. WGNR is a perfect example. Big news came out and the stock price barely moved, same the next day. Then the MM bought to cover the short position it had taken to fill orders previosly and the stock took off like a rocket! Is this the case with HURC? I am not sure. I am staring at the log trying to see if I can detect it. There is a chance that it did happen.
