RE: Wow market taking the absolute pee24 Feb 2022 08:59
Makes me laugh all the talk of market manipulation. Market makers are there to trade shares, they don't care which way the price goes or where it is at any given time. They just provide liquidity.
If no-one was selling there wouldn't be any shares for others to buy. MMs don't keep a warehouse full of shares available just in case anyone wants to buy them. Shares are mainly traded between buyers and sellers via an intermediary (the MM)
It still makes me laugh how everyone gets obsessed about "buys" and "sells". They are all trades, someone has to buy and someone has to sell. There is no cash and carry where they store the shares until someone wants them.
