Stock Manipulation

Corporation Law

The Securities Exchange Act of 1934 makes unlawful to effect a series of transactions in any security registered on a national securities exchange creating actual or apparent active trading in such security or raising or depressing the price of such security for the purpose of inducing the purchase or sale of such security by others. In other words, the Securities Exchange Act makes it illegal to manipulate a stock.
