"Re AVNT:

Who heard about this rumor before market open, to allow the stock to be bid up so that it gapped 35%?"

It was on CNBC -- Joe Kernen reporting. Something about Wessells et al (the Avant touts) had said Candence's case against Avant did not look strong.

<Re AVNT:

Rumor, or manipulation?

Charles,

There was a lot of call buying this week on AVNT. I'd be careful with this one.
