"RULE NUMBER THREE: AS SOON AS THE
MARKET
MANIPULATOR HAS COMPLETED HIS
DISTRIBUTION (DUMPING) OF
SHARES, HE WILL START A BAD NEWS OR NO
NEWS CAMPAIGN."
Your favorite home-run stock has just stalled or
retreated a bit
from its high. Suddenly, there is a news VACUUM.
Either NO news or
BAD rumors. I discovered this with quite a few stocks. I
would get
LOADS of information and "hot tips." All of a sudden,
my pipeline was
shut-off. Some companies would even issue a news
release
CONDEMNING me ("We don't need 'that kind of hype'
referring to
me!). Cute, huh? When the company wanted fantastic
hype circulated
hither and yon, there would be someone there to
spoon-feed me. The
second the distribution phase was DONE....ooops!
Sorry, no more
news. Or, "I'm sorry. He's not in the office." Or, "He
won't be back
until Monday."
The really slick market manipulators would even seed
the
Internet news groups or other journalists to plant
negative stories
about that company. Or start a propaganda campaign of
negative
rumors on all available communication vehicles. Even
hiring a
"contrarian" or "special PR firm" to drive down the
price. Even hiring
someone to attack the guy who had earlier written
glowingly about
the company. (This is not a game for the faint-hearted!)
You'll also see the stock drifting endlessly. You may
even
experience a helpless feeling, as if you were floating in
outer space
without a lifeline. That is exactly HOW the market
manipulator wants
you to feel. See Rule Number Five below. He may also
be doing this to
avoid the severe disappointment of a "dry hole" or a
"failed deal."
You'll hear that oft-cried refrain, "Oh well, that's the
junior minerals
exploration business... very risky!" Or the oft-quoted
statistic, "Nine
out of 10 businesses fail each year and this IS a Venture
Capital
Startup stock exchange." Don't think it wasn't contrived.
If a geologist
at a junior mining company wasn't optimistic and rosy in
his promise
of exploration success, he would be replaced by
someone who was!
Ditto for the high-tech deal, in a world awash with
PhD's.
So, how do you know when you are being taken? Look
again at
Rule #1. Inside that rule, a few other rules unfold which
explain how
a stock price is manipulated. |
