re: How are there ever more 'sellers' than 'buyers'? Ken, You have an asset, There is supply and demand. if supply is greater than demand the price will fall. If demand is greater than supply then the price will rise. The price fell therefore supply was greater than demand. Just keep these things simple and you will stay out of trouble. We could talk about the number of large blocks limits arbatrage, and all kinds of other stuff that can impact the price of the stock. But for july 7, there was more supply and that sent the stock down. Today, it seems that supply is lower than demand and that has driven the price up. I think it is that simple. Jim
