"Who else would have the volume to dump this many shares consistently for an ever decreasing price? Does anyone really think a retail investor could hold enough shares to dump this much, and even if they did, do you think they would do it for such a big loss? Nothing fundamental triggered this sell-off."


How about not just 'a retailer', but, a heap of them - orchestrated by a broker or brokers -- scaring the hell out of little holders - putting fear into them to influence them to sell?

To whom? -------- how about a couple of bigger clients?

Just like selling second hand cars - tell em your trade in's are crap - and tell the new buyer it's the best thing since sliced bread ------

in the middle - you get commission ----- the very thing you survive on.

End result -- transfer of wealth in a falling price -- lots of little one's sell - and a big fish or two acquire.

Sound like a plan?

And, no - it would NOT show up in nett buys or sells.

Now, of course I don't know of ANY brokers who would do such a dastardly act - every broker I know is just scrupulously legally and morally correct.

I wrote about this sort of shenanigans way back last year - this is the sort of crap that happens in big runners - solid companies.

If ANY of you take on face value what is said and what you hear from people in these sorts of dealings --------- you are dead mutton.

You MUST read between the lines --- you MUST question everything.

If you think all this stuff will show up in things like nett buys and sells etc. - think again.

There are more tricks in this game than any single person knows - and, if you did know it all - then some bugger invents a new trick next week.

IMO - this last gaming - has NOTHING to do with AJX - NOTHING to do with charting - and, everything to do with game playing ----------- lining of pockets -

whose? Your guess.

In this game - there are things that stink -- take institutional support for instance -

if you want your shareprice to be 4,6 or 8 or 10 bucks -- you NEED institutions - and sometimes you have to give stuff away to get them - and, when you get a SP going through the roof -- it's great - but,

the downside is -- they play games - and, they also get out often - and, the ride down then is the exact opposite of great - indeed, it is complete crap.

That is all the price of the game.

have a great day all
