Very interesting news.

But would anyone care to chime in on this very bizarre trading activity?  I realize this image might be time sensitive (later viewers will only see a current chart)

But seriously, that is a bizarre spike up from the $225 area to $240.....and then an immediate spike back down.
And then not too long later, a spike down to the $215 level.  This happened within hours (or maybe minutes).
