You'd think if 5 million shares were removed from the float and tucked away in
a fund, and then 10 million more traded, that the price would really zoom up. But it
didn't. In fact it dropped below the open a couple of times during the day.


I suspect there are a lot more shares in the float. Likely many of the covertible junk bond holders made a coversion and sold the shares. That would explain the reasonably small rise with an upgrde.
