Every institution manipulates every stock on the market - going back to some basic theory people generally talk about a market trending in phases representing accumulation, public participation and distribution followed by reaccumulation provided fundamentals remain constant. By manipulating aspects such as depth (which are completely fake given the presence of algos) institutions are able to shake out traders with tight stop losses and lower the price so they can then re-accumulate.
Overall this helps bring the mean average for their holding down significantly, after which they can sell again after the inevitable public participation phase
