It is the DISTANCE between earth and moon that governs the gravitational pull of EACH UPON THE OTHER. Since the moon's orbit around the earth is elliptical, the moon goes through perigee (its smallest distance to the earth) and apogee (its greatest distance) every month. Perigee and apogee can occur at any phase.
What is an Auction and how does it work? An Auction is where property is sold at a specific time and place to the highest bidder. Most auctions require a person to get a bidder number or other identifying item prior to bidding.
Auction in which the lowest price necessary to sell the entire offering becomes the price at which all securities offered are sold. This technique has been used in Treasury auctions. Often used in risk arbitrage. Auction system in which the price of an item (stock) is gradually lowered until it meets a responsive bid (government T-bills) or offer (corporate repurchase) and is sold. In a corporate repurchase, a range of prices is set by the company within which shareholders are invited to tender their shares.
