A daylight robbery!

Two robber brothers quit their "line".

They wanted to "do" something "different".

They took to stock trading.

But old habits die hard.

One day the younger brother got restless.

"Bhai! Why can't we make more money faster? Why can't we buy a bagful of this stock at much
lower price?" he complained to his elder brother.

"Nobody will sell you this stock at lower price. Yahaan aisa nahin hota, chhote!"

The younger brother got angry.

He reached the drawer and took out his loaded gun!

"I'll see how they don't give me their shares at half the price", he murmured.

The elder brother stopped him.

"How many will you force to surrender this way? Don't be childish, Chhotu. This line is different! Come near...".

He then whispered something in Chhotu's ears.

A smile beamed in the eyes of the younger bro.

He phoned his broker and instructed him in code words.

Next morning, his broker started dumping lacs of shares the two brothers held in the said
company.

The retail investors panicked.

Some started selling.

The shares started to fall!

Nobody knew what was happening.

Rumours spread like wildfire!

More people started to sell.

Now the share-price started plummeting.

This transformed into a stampede!!

The "friendly" cartel mopped all the shares, silently!!!

All this happened in broad daylight!

The "robbery" was complete.

Without gun!

In broad day-light!!!
