Juli, I'm glad for my own sake that this stock is not yet marginable, I was known a "Marginman" on another BB right after the Mexican meltdown. :) I have heard about the same technique you mentioned to soften up the price of a thinly traded stock before taking a position, I'll bet that if that has been tried recently on DCTC that the results were less than satisfactory with AGE jumping in now and then on the bid. :) I also think that you are right about some small traders jumping aboard, hoping to make a quick buck on the news of the buyback and getting bored with the lack of movement so moving on to the next play. Some short termers I think that were caught have actually decided to stay aboard after seeing the larger picture so yes it is a mixed bag. If you figure it all out, be sure to explain it to me. :) James
