Ah patrick, the usual conceited swat of an opinion there I see!!! LOL
Funny how everyone always believes in the mystical fairies of MM manipulation.........whilst I agree it does go on, on the whole MM have the job of balancing supply and demand to maintain an orderly market. If they suddenly started making decisions to go long or short in companies (specially very small caps like GLD) the whole system would breakdown.
Now thats FACT, meanwhile all the talk of manipulation designed to rip people off is sheer fantasy.
