truth is someone manipulated the market to make a shit load of money

Last Thursday, it was Avon that was cheated higher after a fake takeover filing provided just enough momo juice for the machines to destroy any and every short in the stock instantly. Today, it was Quest Diagnostics turn to be manipulated.

Between 1005 and 1015ET today, someone quietly - and with no price movement - bought around 1200 lots (equivalent of 120,000 shares) of June $75 Strike call options at around the $1.25 level.

Then at around 1027ET, targeted rumors started to circulate, and a tweet - since inexplicably deleted - was sent by @OptionsHawk which, according to Bloomberg, said "Quest had hired Goldman Sachs & Co. after receiving a $95-a-share approach. "

The calls exploded to over $12 in price (a 1100% return) and the stock soared over 20%.

DGX actually hit a high today of $89.00 and then fell off.

This should trigger an SEC investigation. Leaders may not have sold but family and friends did.

Company isn't worth $50 per share . Who would offer $95.
Leaders here are filling there pockets who cares if this company goes under it is the last place they will work and just retire. This is an Enron.

Compliance , Billing, Lab Operation violations being covered up. When the violations of fines hit. It will be a garage sale. Who cares We filled our pockets and let the blame fall on the next person.

No Quality or commitment here any more

Listen douch bag, we all know what happened and your post is a few days late. It was a little more than a "false flag" but you are too stupid to know what the details were. Now get back to your little cube and shuffle some papers.
