>>Everyone thinks a big brokerage could _never_ actually manipulate a stock or commodity price..

<KIS>You're kidding of course? Right???

Wasn't it Andrew Carnegie who single-handedly turned the market around
when the first run on the banks started in '29? <Real historians, please jump in.> And, if memory servers... he was actually ASKED to "manipulate the market". AMZN? What, approx. $465M in trading yesterday... hell, the smallest broker in Boise could handle that... let alone Wall St.

(Hey. Think if the market does crash that Gates will step in?)
