They say the NASDAQ double counts--so how about 725,000 minus one-half the average volume (38,000) 19,000 X 4 days = 650,000 shares. My guess is that almost one-half the available shares were not let through subscription, but traded in through the open market. Those shares traded in through the market may have included the optional 187,500 shares, we will have to wait for the announcement to see if the option was exercised.
The volume should return to normal in a few days. Not a bad day. |
