Dave, of course they manipulate, but when they do it they expose themselves to the same risks all of us do. They try and anticipate the mass psychology and nudge it, to the extent they can in their direction. What would you do, have a low that say that no single entity can have more than let say $10 MM committed to equities?

Zeev, that's just too easy. And so is manipulation. Read why and tell me if this is something we all should just accept. You really think you wouldn't make more money if the playing field was more leveled. Really?

Two responses:

[1] This is a really strange set of posts coming from a guy who admits he is paid to pump a penny stock;

[2] Regarding that article, the NASDAQ doesn't have specialists -- just computers -- but if anything it is more manipulated than the NYSE, not less, so this article's point rather misses, IMHO.
