Re: [RT] VERY HEAVY BLK activity ON MSFT

  If there is a shortage of stock to loan, it 
doesn't necesarily mean manipulation. The stock loan box is a function of supply 
and demand. Stocks are loaned in exchange for a piece of the interest that will 
be earned on the resulting cash when the stock is sold. 
If interest rates are very low, as they are now, 
there may not be enough incentive for people to loan the stocks.  
Additionally, under the current anxious enviroment, people may be concerned 
enough about financial security to demand delivery of their certificates.  
This reduces the supply of available street certificates for loan. So, given the 
current enviroment of low interest rates and high anxiety, I can see where a 
shortage of stocks for loan is very possible. 
 
Cheers,
Norman

      sure you noticed that  "they" were buying MSFT this morning trying to 
      keep it up to create firm tone to get S & P traders to cover shorts... 
      now softy below 57 again.  Richard Ney was the person I'm most 
      familiar with who is a big tracker of blks.. It takes a while to get a 
      feel for it and it does require a bit of intuition........

          activity ON MSFT USING 
          MSFT data below.. note the lowest of the blks is 57.. MSFT has dropped 
          below the higher blk trades which will now become resistance vs 
          support.. so once below 57 all the mutual funds that bot softy are 
          under water... These stocks many are back up to 9/17 or pre 911 and 
          the specialists and market makers will jump at the chance to sell what 
          they had to buy on the way down and then they will go short again... I 
          WILL CHECK AND SEE WHAT PRICES OF BLKS IF ANY ARE ON THE OTHERS... 
          I BELIEVE I SENT CSCO EARLIER....
