TSE accuses broker of share fixing
Article Abstract:
Maison Placements Canada Inc.'s president, John Ing, has been accused by the Toronto Stock Exchange of tampering with the share price of thinly traded stock to give way to an C$8-million to C$10-million private placement. The stock exchange said that it was Ing who ordered the sale of 15,000 shares of the former Sonora Gold Corp. late in the day on Oct. 30, 1996. The order caused the share price of Sonora Gold to fall to 37.5 cents from around 45 cents. The stock exchange said that the sell order made possible the sale of shares and warrants in a private placement at an unreasonably low price.
