IMO, there is very easy way to see what's what. Lets have the SEC examine the Tax Returns of the posters on SI, (for example), and cross reference each one of their stocks to their postings. (I bet that one gets a big "yea" vote..LOL) IMO, if people didn't believe that they couldn't influence things, they wouldn't be here. Why are so many alleged... MM's, brokers, fund people,IR people, etc etc here to begin with? These are all the so called pros. They must believe something is worth all the time and effort, what do you think? I happen to think that most of the manips come from the day traders on BB stocks. Small floats, lots of hype, and organised buying. The shorters (on BB stocks) are, IMO, the lackeys of the MM's and I believe that they also work in concert, but the other way, and cause equally as many manips. The rest of us are caught in the middle of all of this Bulls***. JMO
