A theory on price. Reverse psychology.

If I had knowledge of the outcome of the vote and had some degree of power over the price of the stock, would I want the price to go immediately up to the buyout price and just sit there? At that point it's game over. Nothing to do but sit and wait for the buyout to happen.

On the other hand, if I knew the vote was going to go for the buyout and I could do something with the stock price (insiders/MMs), it would certainly be in my benefit to keep the price low, especially if I could do it on low volume with little risk. That would allow me to pick up shares right up until the actual announcement at VERY CHEAP PRICES.

Noone here really knows what's going on so any theories are just that.

Trade accordingly.
