My question is can ihub investors along account for the 10 to 100 million shares that have been traded daily since the stock hit .015 around dec 30? I know that a lot of ihub members just don't post. But it seems only a few ihub posters own 1/2 million or more shares. Prior to 1/3/2012 ATRN volume was like 200,000 and much less somedays. The stock went from $1 to .01
In 30 days of december. So did this ATRN hit ihub investors radar because of the big one day volume jump or because word was out to bigger investors that a merger was in the near future? Like I said earlier why did MEG volume BOOM on the same day as ATRN boom in volume on 1/3/12?
