Buying Panic |
0.01 sec. |
Buying Panic The rapid buying of a security by a large number of investors. This decreases the supply of the security available for sale and therefore drives up the price.

The panic comes from investors' desire to buy into the stock immediately before the price rises even more. See also: Panic sale, Sell-off. How to thank TFD for its existence?
