There doesn't need to be 'loads of people'. The value of a share can drop with a very low volume of trading.junii said:So, when there is a big crash or even a small one, how is it that loads of people begin selling their stock, many times even losing money.
They don't go anywhere, they are still there for sale at whatever price they've been put on sale at.junii said:Ok, what if a major investor wants to sell 1million shares for example. What happens if there is no-one else to buy them? Where do they go??

tyler_durden said:im no expert but i can tell u what works for me.................
when 9/11 hit and markets crashed - i bought.....
when elans tysabri drug got pulled and share price crumbled - i bought......
when ryanair issued a profit warning and their share price crashed - i bought...........
all the shares i bought have at least doubled......
i think once u are not in for a quick kill and are prepared to wait 1/2/3 years for share prices/markets to recover, they invariably will......when the sheep buy i sell, and when the sheep sell, i buy........no-one says u have to sell your shares at a loss just coz 'everyone else' is.........
thats what works for me anyway.............

junii said:Who has them for sale though when the original investor has cashed in? As soon as hes cashed in he doesn't own the shares. So who owns them to sell them or does the seller have to wait for a buyer before he can get money?
