Certain fund mangers aren't stupid. They love to run the price up when they know the shorts are scrambling to cover. A few well placed 10,000 share blocks can cause a 2 or 3 point run-up which will allow the unloading of much more than 10,000 shares.

Sometimes you have to spark a little buying so you can do a little selling.

Besides, I know a couple of private investors that can afford 10,000 share blocks of YHOO.
