Market making was written in previous posts. Just search for "market making".

In the trade, you have to have stock pool as inventory of stocks. You have to have cash pool to buy stock, people want to sell. When you have sufficient amounts of both, the stock price is steady and firm and can have nice moves. Therefore, there is no risks for market maker's customers or any other investors. If you find a stock, such as GE, GE is now its own stock and cash pool, by buying back their own stock. Or IBM, buying back their own stock, made nice moves for quite a few years. There are many other stocks. Tang fund has a few stocks with the proper stock and cash pool.

Stock pools and cash pools are sometimes the best customers of the market maker.
