Sounds like a lot of people got screwed on the secondary. Naturally, they set as high a price as they could. Overpriced it. Period. The underwriters sold it to the buyers and the underwriters shorted it to keep it stable. They then waited and covered their shorts. Then tubes. If that isn't manipulation, what is. How about the poor buyers at 41 . Were they sold a bill of goods by Solomon or what ?

All I knew was that buying WCII at 41 , at that time, wasn't a good idea alone. But to buy a secondary which is increasing dilution at 41 ? There must be logic here, but I don't see it.
