Ron, My take on the larger bid/ than ask not moving the stock is that TRIBY investors put in limit orders only. These limit orders must be much lower than market. The MM would move the stock but there are no market orders to move it up. Market buying means--buy at any price-- this will cause the stock to move. Right now there is obviously no buyers willing to buy TRIBY for full price, however, it is encouraging that there are buyers willing to buy big chunks at a discount. I have been critical of MM in the past, but they can't sell a stock higher than it will bring. WIth low volume, when this stock moves lower to pick up the low bids it will most likely blow lower still on market selling with increased volume. OUT
