Digg it UP - Market Manipulation Only Goes So Far
Who are your role models? Your heroes? And do you even have any? I believe one of the problems we have in society today is that we lack positive role models who influence us in a healthy way. Just look at many of the successful people today in: sports, entertainment, politics, business and religion. You don’t have to look very far to find numerous examples of – negative role models. So why bother having a hero or role model? Role models can help us a gr
The preferred method to artificially help the price go up was the spread of rumors (sometimes with the help of journalists and/or stock promoters), followed by trading in the market, wash trades and trying to corner the supply of stock.

After launching an attractive and informative website on a niche market, achieving quality traffic becomes your next target. Most of the business analysts and experts find traffic conversion more important than the traffic itself. Certainly, you need traffic as it makes your online business a complete success. There will be no potential buyers to convert to sales unless you get the desired traffic.Conversion of traffic into buyers is considered both an a
In the study, what types of people were most likely to be involved in market manipulation? Large shareholders owning 5% or more of the manipulated stock? Brokers? Small speculators? Corporate insiders?
After dissecting the data for over hundred cases, the authors found that market makers and underwriters were each involved in about one in ten situations – large shareholders almost one third of the time, insiders in just under half of the manipulations, and brokers in over 60% of the cases (the total is more than 100% as people from different categories often cooperated in order to influence stock prices).
Small speculators? Zilch. Everyone seems to have heard of (then) 16 year old Jonathan Lebed who settled with the SEC in 2000 for manipulating stocks from his bedroom, or other similar stories; yet trying to influence the price of a stock seems to be almost exclusively reserved to professionals.
Let’s move on to the second question of our quiz: how many times did the manipulators try to make the stock price go up versus down? Mostly up? About 50-50? Mostly down?
As you certainly guessed, in more than four out of five cases they tried to push the price up. What’s surprising is that attempts at deflating the price were less than 1% (the other results being 2% stabilizing the stock price and 13% impossible to classify).

Sometimes we feel that we are handling everything just fine. You’re a business owner and your list of clients is growing leaps and bounds as you hoped it would. The money is coming in and you may even enjoy spending an extra hour or two at the office to get caught up at the end of the day or early in the morning before the phone begins to ring. This is how you wanted it but if only you had those one or two extra hours every day. The new blackberry is fine bu

So how do we make money with that?
Most investment approaches have only one strong side. According to hedge fund indices, the average dedicated short seller made a bit less than 10% per year from 2000 to 2002, as the markets crashed. The six years before that, as well as since 2003, markets have been up and the “shorts” lost money. Asking those people to make money in a bull market is like asking a right-handed tennis champion to play with his left hand.
One of the most intriguing things about the Inside ALPHA™ (IA) strategy is that, over a full market cycle, it gets about half of its profits from bets on the long side (expecting stocks to go up) and about half of the rest from its shorts (stocks going down). The short side of the IA portfolio has always been profitable over a six months period, despite the markets rallying 40% since the end of 2002.
This performance, we believe, has a lot to do with the findings in the above mentioned study.
You see, the IA strategy is investigative by nature, so we usually like to check the background of the management before making an investment decision.
