Sorry. I did not mean to convey a bad "attitude". It was just a quickly written response.

I am a fan of "interesting empirical patterns", and the filling of gaps is definitely one of them. But the good (robust) patterns usually have an explanation that relies on an economic explanation or perhaps even a behavioural one; after all, markets simply aggregate information and opinions about the values of assets. Otherwise, the pattern is just a pattern, with no real meaningful descriptive or predictive content. My guess is that this one, the filling of gaps, has a story. I was simply looking for it. I figured that someone like you with experience might know the story, or have a hunch about what the story ought to be.

Thanks for the explanation and the links. I have not had a chance to look at them in detail as yet. I will over the weekend.
