Found this news just out on AVEN interesting...small float, ready to move IMO...% gain thus far today belies the "true" gain due to a sell at the bid to close previous day's trading...was a 30% spread on it in prior sessions...so this gain represents merely a tick or two above that. A funny PR...speculative.
