This is a foreign stock that trades on European exchanges. This is why you will see the stock gap a bit each day whether it is up or down. This stock has had a strong upward trajectory since the beginning of June despite the fact that Europe (which is where much of it's businesses are) has been weak. As the European economy has weakened further and the Euro has strengthened this has put some pressure on the stock. This stock is a dividend play and it is why it is a great company to own and not worry about the day to day fluctuations. As the stock gets cheaper any new purchases will yield you a higher divy which is well over 5% now.
