Essentially, there are three primary ways to manipulate financial markets: fraudulent schemes, illegal activities, and legal strategies. Fraudulent schemes involve tricking investors into buying or selling investments under false pretenses for the purpose of artificially affecting prices. Illegal activities include insider trading or market manipulation aimed at advancing the interests of investors or corporations. Legal strategies mainly involve creating artificial prices through various instruments such as derivatives, issuing bonds or stocks at unfavorable prices and purchasing them back later at higher prices to generate profits, as well as exploiting market inefficiencies for profits.
