The 'quiet' is probably 50% from capitulation/resignation to the fact that the stock is not behaving like that of a company sitting on good news, but rather like a company with no news that it is 'eager' to release.....bad news, inconsequential news.
And from 50% who place their faith in unsubstantiated claims about # of wells, production from those wells and allegations that the company was either on the block or that it had been sold....but much less faith than just days or weeks ago.
