Mike; That looks like a large order was placed with a Market Marker
early in the day, and the market maker sold /& bought during the
day enough shares to cover the order , "then closed out his position
at the end of the day," most likely given the client the average
trading price for the day. The first one could have been a buy,
but the second one looks like a sell. The spike at the end is the
market maker closing out what he accumulated in respect to
the order, which if it had been placed all on the market all
at one time would have unstabilized the price a lot.
