When one thinks about it a billion traded in a day is pretty huge. Numbers posted previously (6 billion shares held for security - untraded, Franks 53% of the 9.5 billion oustanding shares, leaving us with 4.46 billion shares for trading (roughly)). That's about 25% of all the shares outstanding traded in one day (of course the same shares bounced back and forth many times, etc.).
