Re: <<On the power of the MMs...>>

One more thing to add to this discussion. The market makers do not have this power unless the institutions "play along".

So, I ask you: if the big money guys start to see the market makers push Dell to $90 (pin price at maximum options screwing), why would they start buying the stock until it got down to $90?

That would be stupid. And these big money guys are not stupid (they just don't know how to beat the S&P <ggg>)

Today was like the day after Christmas. Big money players knew they could buy all the shares of Dell today at $90 that they wanted, all the Intel at $80, all the AOL at $85 and so on.

Stocks get pinned because the big money players are more patient than we are and know the games better than most retail investors.
