The more you watch the stock market, the weirder it gets. At five minutes before the close, somebody popped for 21,800 shares of SNDK at $95 (and a big bunch of much smaller trades immediately preceded that at $94.75). Seconds later, the next few trades were at $93 and change in lots of 100-300. Of course, we bubbled back to close at $94.125. Why the huge gap? Who bought the $2 million-plus lot and what does he/she know? And how does he/she feel about losing $20,000 in 5 minutes? - Don
