Do you realize that there are people who are employed to manipulate the stock market? When they (the government) wrote the laws about stock market manipulation they (the government) exempted one set of persons from those laws? Do you know that these persons are allowed to have their own accounts that they can trade? Shocked? Market makers and specialists are required to set stock prices and keep an orderly market. And "they" are allowed to profit from the activity. When mobster "Lucky" Luciano was being was being deported from the US he was allowed to take a tour of Wall St.. He was introduced to some specialists and had it explained to him what they did for a living. As he exited the building, he told reporters "Gentlemen, I'm sad to report that I joined the wrong mob." Most of these folks work for brokerage firms. So, the bottom line would be, "they" would be the brokerage firms. Today, "they" have had generations of experience working applied human behavior science. "They" now employ super computers to determine how best to move the market to give them the largest profit. I wonder what Pavlov would think .. And, in addition to that, at least one of the brokerage firms has been given unlimited credit by the Federal Reserve. Makes ya wanna puke, don't it? .. but you did ask.
