bob, If you look at the bottom of the page, the high for the day is also displayed (14 1/4 so far). As I have said many times in the past, the naysayer's hindsight is far from 20/20. LGND moved up to 14 1/4 very quickly as buyers moved in early. Later a few there was a 35K swap (at 13 7/8 and 14) as well as a few more large trades at the full ask price of $14. In the past, a volume increase due to large block swapping has preceded a major move up. I expect a re-run.
