Haven't we been "blaming" this repulsive stock slide way too long on the MMs. I mean, if it is, they should have been content LONG ago with how much they could have gotten at cheap prices. Lets face it, NO ONE is interested in this company. are the illustrious folks at this company "hiding under their desks", wondering just when to cut bait. Or, to remember BS' words, he didn't care if we sold our stock or not. Contracts????? How many think that contracts are being signed.???? Not I. If they were on a roll signign contracts this stock sure as hell would not be selling at what it is. Quiet period. Sorry, but the QP is OVER. Its just that MS ran out of excuses, so now there are no excuses, there just isn't anything. Cruel and inhuman I'd call the behavior of Maura and MS. Not quite the "prince and princess" that some colored them long ago.

Hi TMK , Usually market makers don't "play" the stock to make a profit by loading up. But they do move the share prices up , then back down trying to generate as wide of a spread as possible. It is to their advantage to take prices as far as they'll go in either direction in order to more easily start the stampede going in the other direction. I'm not into MM conspiracy theories much but they do promote extreme prices on both ends - highs and lows and I believe that if they see a standing (very large) block order within their ability to reach that they'll try to get it filled by moving the price into a certain position/level.
