Large volume doesn't necessarily mean much of anything with otc bb stocks. The volume is very misleading. Probably does mean some rumors have interested more investors. Remember that E*Trade and your other discount internet brokers make their money by being paid by the MMs for paper flow. If a MM can't perform they are gone and this is their livelihood. If stock is purchased whether they have the inventory or not they sell. They then obtain the stock from other MMs and each transaction no matter how many times the stock is passed between them counts in the volume figure. Nothing sinister this is just the way it works. Short squeeze? Possible but highly unlikely with a BB stock. Why? Just not enough sustained buying that it takes to make it happen. News occurs and the greedy get in on the tail end. MMs box the price with the bid much higher than the ask. The latest investors double or triple their money and begin taking profits while the new investors are almost immediately underwater. There is then a lag between the time more news comes out and the latest investors start panicking and sell. The price drifts back down. Again nothing sinister but it keeps the MM from getting burned. Not trying to be negative but registering certs and short squeezes are talked about on about every board with few of them occurring. Best to focus on the fundamentals and everything will take care of itself IMO. But then again, gold find of the century..... now that might just make for a short squeeze! Oh well, why not dream a little. Realist
