Sec Reg Maniipulative Devices for Dummies

2. Marking the close: Buying right before closing of market

5. Boiler room operations:The term boiler room in business refers to a centre of criminal activity where financial products, particularly stock, are sold by telephone. The targets of organisations using boiler rooms are often subject to unfair, pressured, and dishonest sales tactics. Whilst some boiler rooms specialise in stock fraud, most sell penny stock or shares in companies which have yet to float on a stock exchange, misrepresenting it as more valuable than it actually is.

Use in a sentence: Ang love (pwede rin law school) ay parang boiler room operations, unfair, pressured and dishonest.
