goodaye Buddy, a TU from me on your last post.

you commented:

"When someone wants to make a move on a company for instance, and wants to lower the sp, that is when this will occurr. A typical example of that, was when AOE was taken over via a SOA by Shell/Petrochina last year. NAB at the time was the offending party that was lending it's share for that purpose alone, and that was constantly in and out of a substantial holder position on a regular basis."

what confounds me is that it is illegal to create a false market in a coys shares. It IS illegal to manipulate the market.

I guess it is clear that what NAB was doing must have been OK. Of course one does not know what their status was, maybe just a post-box.
But for me, if Shell/Petro was behind the trades, or someone associated with them, and the PURPOSE of the trades was to push down the price of Arrow, then I cannot understand why that would not be creating a false market?

And you are right, it may well be happening to BOW.

the Hedge boys seem to be toying with the stock now.
