Just curious Dr Monopoly but when you say " It may be that some loose retail can be shaken out".. What do you mean by "shaken" as it implies that that some force is applied, so how is this force applied.

I see that you have also used the term "shaking the tree" which also implies that something is using a degree of force to lower share prices.
If there is no manipulation of stocks as you say ( conspiracy theories I think you said ) then...........
Exactly how is this force applied.? and , What means are used?

Not a criticism of you in any way as a lot of your posts are excellent.....just seeking clarification is all.

cheers
