Manipulation is intentional conduct designed to deceive investors by controlling or artificially affecting the market for a security. Manipulation can involve a number of techniques to affect the supply of, or demand for, a stock. They include: spreading false or misleading information about a company; improperly limiting the number of publicly-available shares; or rigging quotes, prices or trades to create a false or deceptive picture of the demand for a security. Those who engage in manipulation are subject to various civil and criminal sanctions.

That last sentence makes me think the bashers should be barred from all activity regarding stocks. The day after BMXC hit 5 cents, I-Glow showed up. The stock has been down ever since.

He should be thrown in prison and fined. Anyone know a good lawyer that can bring a suit against the scum?
