re: the honorable thing: I concede: You can't concede. You are legally obligated to continue this process until every potential and intended trade has been hand-counted, while a lawyer for the shorters, and a lawyer for the irrationally exuberant, watch over your shoulders. Also, your lawyers will file appeals, after exhaustive research, and bill you at 700$/hour, to the limit of your net worth. So far, one or the other has contested 98% of all today's trades, and each trade is the subject of a separate lawsuit, filed in every one of Florida's 67 counties. A stock trade is not a stock trade until it is "court-tested", and all appeals have been exhausted. You have entered the twilight zone. Nothing is at is seems, and plain English can be re-defined by the judge. What is the definition of "is"?
