That is just the way the game is played. I don't have any problem whatsoever with the hammering and the hatcheting. The only places I have a problem are where the law is broken. If there was collusion to make the same play among different brokerage houses, then there is a violation of securities regs. . . or if market makers were told to move one or more stocks in any direction at any time. . .or to lend a hand in any way to an organized play, then there are violations. If there were erroneous "analysis" published about certain stocks to help make their play, then that is a violation. And most importantly, if there was any way for the SEC to prove that a dozen or more brokerages going offline and refusing to answer phones, on Wednesday, April 14 for the first 3 to 4 hours. . . was anything more than a coincidence, then in a year or so when they complete their investigation, we will all get to read about what really happened. Until then, all we can do is whatever our conscious and our common sense tells is right. Rande Is
