Addi and all...
Just had a look at the volumes for Friday last, and its an inescapable fact that Sapiens has become a momentum stock, for the time being at least. The number of trades is way above what you might expect of a 'smallish' company [no disrespect meant!]
Examples (all Y2K) Alyd 78,000 cbsl 24,000 imrs 76,000 mapx 152,000 vias 421,000 zitl 1,310,000
Spnsf 605,000
So, other than the much hyped and maligned Zitel, we were second in this list of randomly chosen companies. IBM only traded 5x as many stock! So, like it or loath it, we are up there in 'hype' territory, with all that implies about exaggerated price movements. I havent looked at the charts to see how volume has affected Spnsf in the past, but I would have thought that such a large volume on Friday could well precede a move to the upside. And possibly such a move could be fast, warning caution on the part of those looking to profit from short term dips.
Good luck to all
