I would like to add that this may not only concern the futures but also after hour trading (which has generally a low volume). When for instance AOL reported earnings the stock price fell at first 3.5% in ah trading, then suddenly climbed to +10%. The next day in opened at the high price (~50) only to fall very quickly to the initial level. This might have saved AOL from a 10% price slash for the earnings that were just in line first call expectations. Then on friday when COMP went through the roof, AOL stopped going with the market at about 48 and stayed on that level for hours. When the market sold off later, it went down with it proportionally. Maybe the cause was huge selling @ 48 from institutional(s). The problem is, one sounds always a little ridiculous with suspicions like this... PMG
