I have about 40 or so small caps I watch trade (kinda hard to watch all the trading on 40 ;) but one thing I have noticed through this downturn is the ability for the MM to take the prices down on small trades and low volume. I have seen complaints about this on other boards and threads also. There are quite a few stocks I see that have really not seen that much selling volume and even have positive moneyflow for the day and they take the price down on small trades. Seems, almost like they take advantage of a bad situation in other parts of the market just to pick up cheap shares. Kinda sad really but I imagine when this thing turns, as steep as the decline is, maybe they will move pretty quickly back up. Just some more fun thoughts, John
