chuck.

So I wrote back and said that 30K block shouldnt have that big of a ripple on a 426K day, particularly since it would probably be broken up in a couple of separate trades, and this was the reply I received as follows: ( If anyone objects strenously to my posting my email from folks I don't know, I probably will anyway, once in awhile as long as I don't feel I am being used to peddle false info) I think we would all rather see the email and judge for ourself than not see it.
Now to the letter:

until his order went in (not 30k at once, but pieced (like you
mentioned) & in rapid succession "dumb move") the stock was fairly
stable/quiet. i understand his reasoning for hitting it quick as he knew
the MM's would run away and he wanted to get the best possible prices
before they ran too far and/or other selling occurred. if i'm not
mistaken the vol. at the time was approx. 1/4 of the days total. this
action followed by some panic selling & MM shorting caused the
appearance of panic which the MM's use to their
advantage.
