Hey Guys, I'm looking for opinions on the 200,000 share bid by Levesque @ 17 cents per share? Good or Bad?

Fixer has talked about a practise by stockbrokers called "boxing". If the broker is trying to accumulate, he will place a large sell order just above the market price. This will usually cause a lot of day traders to quickly sell at lower prices. This is when the broker starts accumulating the cheap shares. On the other side, a lot of times when a broker goes to sell, he will place a large buy order a couple cents below market price. The average investor sees this and starts buying because of the support below.

I'm not saying this is happening for sure, but I'm just a little suspicious cause today Levesque was the big seller above 20 cents. I'm sure they get a lot more information from Cambior than even Zappa gets.

A long time ago Al & Bo Brain were making comments about us investors being on the bottom of the investment food chain. I used to think they were wrong, but I guess I was wrong.
