Man this is getting so boring. Only around 90,000 shares traded after 2.5 hours. This is REALLY slow. Is something up? When volume usually dries up, it means a bottom or a top, right? Haven't tried to prove this theory. Why such low volume? Just no news?

Tunica, I was looking at volume and we may see a final today in the quarter million range. The lowest volume since the stock split in June of 97, was 243,600 on 8/25/97 with VVUS at $26.40. As a matter of trivia, VVUS did not get below $26.40 again until 10/27/97 when we closed at $25.25 following the famous march to $41.88 on 10/6/97, 29 trading days after the low volume day on 8/25/97.

What was going on then? Here are posts at random.
