Term Of The Day: Poop and Scoop
------------------------------------------------------------
A highly illegal practice occurring mainly on the Internet.
A small group of informed people attempt to push down a stock
by spreading false information and rumors. If they are
successful, then they can purchase the stock at bargain prices.
Investopedia Says:

Poop and scoop is the opposite of pump and dump.
