Manipulation is an avenue which is built in the stock market tradings for the purpose of avoiding stagnation of the share price .
It is abused continuously but how can you stop them when even the body that supposed enforce the rules is blatantly absent.
It is the game where the big fish makes a meal of the small one [ institutions versus retailers ].
We ,as retailers , are the small fish but the big suckers that knowingly fall into the trap in pursue of that golden chest at the end of the rainbow.
Some of us follow the game and this is were some rewards show up at the end of the day.
Beside of all the games played i believe in NOT , the only difference is that at the end of the rainbow instead of gold we will find NICKEL .
Cheers .
