That was true for the last three days.

REDI has been the primary seller for the last three days, likely selling over 50% of all shares that eventually changed hands each day.

Today, REDI was likely responsible for over 70% of the shares sold. INCA, another market maker CC used in September, accounted for a fair number of the remaining shares sold.

REDI sold a lot of shares in August. We have never seen REDI buy a lot of shares in the last three and a half months.

All this means that REDI is either CC, or a short member of the selling coalition. Today, I suspect REDI was CC selling shares to cap the price, and let other short friends in the coalition cover. This is what INvestor was suggesting... I can't come up with another reason for such strange behavior over the last three days.

This looks like an end game exit strategy for the shorts to extricate themselves from a death spiral situation.

What do YOU think REDI was doing selling over 400k shares today?

Larry,

It is easy to understand. REDI is an ECN and therefore had small buyers and a single motivated large seller or sellers.

Regards,
