Pursuant to my previous comments on the junior markets Message 24735079

Don't dismiss manipulation either. As I've mentioned I've been successfully playing junior markets for many years now and I've noticed a frustrating change and the major change is that institutional money and big players are often involved in many junior situations and in many cases these players have their own agenda. They have huge positions and in many cases they are able to swing the market in the direction that they want and I'm sure whatever direction they swing the market in they are lining their pockets.
In the case of GXS I wouldn't at all discount that many of the big boys missed the play altogether and the hole was intentionally drilled knowing that it would likely miss and the intent was to whack the market so that the big boys could get in while they are fleecing the retail investors who are now panicking. Maybe I'm paranoid but I'm seeing manipulation in many plays and you can bet your bottom dollar it isn't going to be the big boys who are left holding the bag. They are selling as they are pumping and they are buying as they are spreading nasty rumours. In the case of GXS who knows what the agenda is but you can bet that many retail investors are crapping themselves and bailing out and if GXS has a huge rebound it's because the big money has climbed on board cheap and it's to their advantage to move GXS higher. Big money doesn't give a shit about the little guy. Sometimes it's not only what can go wrong will go wrong but it seems that more and more the market is manipulated and it goes wrong because it's on the agenda of the big boys with big money playing the swings.
