People who use less-crappy brokers, via exchanges. Or market makers, if they are willing to beat the best current offer on the exchanges.

- freshhawk 5y agoSo a smaller pool of people than those people + people on robinhood. So nice convenient price pressure is applied. Which I think is the OPs point.
- paulgb 5y agoConvenient for whom? If the implication is that they were trying to manipulate the market, I agree they should be in trouble, I just don’t think that’s the case. I’d note that the other choice they could have made — blocking selling when it was not necessary — would also have the appearance of market manipulation (in the other direction).
