raeban,

I don't think so as there has to be a buyer and seller on both sides. As I have said in some broker report postings, these look like accumulations (esp CER) by someone through one or more brokers. Over time, they are adding up to be quite sizeable amounts.

Yesterday, special crossings in CER accounted for about 18% of the volume. When you add in the suspicious looking 450k cross trade which also went through (which may or may not be related) the figure is closer to 23%. This could just be Orbis upping their stake again, although CER has had some positive coverage recently so it could be someone else.

CNP crossings are a mystery at this stage though. Could be end-of-year sales, could be ASX100 sell down, could be speculative investor... no idea.
