<<Anyone know how that could happen? Someone put in a sell order at a very high price and someone screwed up and put in a buy order at a very high price? >> Someone fat fingered an after hours trade? Maybe someone was trying to buy it for $92.16 and they were so focused on the 16 pennies that they missed the fact that they were buying if for $116. I don't think it was a computer error. People make mistakes. My old accountant was a very active trader. She told me that she owned a stock that had been underwater for several years. When she sold it she mistakenly bought shares at the high of the year and doubled her position, instead of selling her stock.
