reading all the emails tonight on this topic, I had assumed this "spike"
came at the open. I was quite surprised when I finally got around to looking
at a one minute chart of today's trade, and saw it happened late morning. I
must agree, from my experience it is highly suspicious of manipulation.

I got caught in this so-called CVH inbalanced. luckily i had a limit order
in place. although limit orders don't work sometimes- because they don't
have to execute limit orders, although they are within the price window. of
course. there were too many eyes on CVH. i was curious what kind of remedy
is there for this specialist's malfeasance, especially for buyers @ 34.50
and above- more than 10 minutes after placing their market orders. david
