"A lid can only be held on so long without getting fingers burnt. Playing at the end of day is OK for 10 or 20,000 shares but if demand increases nobody will want to feed 100 to 200K shares in just to hold down price.
No idea when news might come but right now would be nice, Thursdays always better than Fridays and avoids stop trading if after hours. Mind you Monday morning suits me too."
An announcement would be rather nice indeed, however I believe that news is not necessarily going to be as soon as some would like. We've been there before and folks are again waxing major optimism. I think, as others have stated, that it is perceived that this is the time to get back into NOT as it is tops in the industry and undervalued. The sudden rush a day ago was likely the usual fury that hits when people think they are missing out. I think it possible that there are those keeping a lid on it knowing that they have time to tear it down periodically and keep loading up. Call me a cynic, but there are those that know things and do things they shouldn't.
