Bobble, the daily swings that you refer to are just the last trade. Most of the day, the stock has a wide spread. There really isn't a wide swing in the price activity. When the volume picks up, the spread narrows. At one point today, the spread was 8 5/8 bid to
9 1/4 ask. So a sell order might be filled at 8 5/8 and a buy order
might be filled at 9 1/4 as succesive trades. I would suggest
getting the bid and ask when getting a quote and not the last
trade as a better indicator of the stock price. Interesting that the
last trade today is lower than the closing bid and ask. I was
hoping to be partners with you once again, so I'm sorry that you
didn't buy this stock.
