Need a little info about MM dynamics. I've heard the term "friendly market makers". Are they friendly to the companies or to whom? Also, suppose a company knew it had lot's of good news pending and figured it's stock would be going much higher and also was thinking about eventually buying back some it's own shares back. If that company was short on cash at the moment but expected a good cash flow in the near future, under any circumstance could they influence MM's to keep the price of their stock down until they had the cash to buy some of it back? Is such a thing even possible? Anyone who has been a MM or REALLY KNOWS the dynamics of MM's & BB stocks PLEASE RESPOND... Thanks in advance, R. Gates
