Don't they just make the market and flow with the ebb and tide? Precisely. At least as related to financial markets - they are a buyer to every seller, and a seller to every buyer - they by definition must take the opposite side of trades. But - if they must short into a rally, they'll demand a premium for their risk, and if they must buy into a decline, they'll bring the price lower and lower, and load up cheap. They are "smart money" NOT because of any superior intelligence, but because the crowd is usually wrong - "investraders" push things too far and end up loading up into the wrong extreme.
