So a bunch of stuffs could be unloaded in one dark pool, but those in public stock exchange or other dark pool venues do not know what is going on. People may trade things assuming their price is high, but in reality, it can be low. Price as a market signal for demand and supply breaks down.

Sounds like what's happening with oil - but I don't believe this is done with commodities, is it?

Dark pool puts one more layer of veil on the market, and it is a thick veil, too. As if we would not already have enough problem with price signal with speculative demand in the market.
