The volume RIGHT AT the close could be due to Russell 2000 index funds buying. The index funds don't try to beat the market, the try to track the index. They are not speculators or traders looking for the LOD. They try to buy as close to the close as they can.

Google Russell reballancing effect. You will find it rerely makes a HUGH change on the day, but rather the period before is market by slow raised Cap.
