RE: CBP -10 million Market Cap companyMackie, I would think the term is insider tipping versus trading as insiders have to disclose their trades and there are blackout periods for buying and selling. Insider tipping is an insider that knows something and tells a friend and then the friend tells a friend and then the volume grows from nowhere getting attention from outsiders that knows something is up, but isn't in the loop but jumps on board. Don't think it happens. I can tell you it happens all the time even if by accident.
You could be right with the increase in volume for Consolidatd as who I am to say you were wrong but the huge volume could either be from the trade show , an announcment of the rig or in my opinion someone that knew a signed agreement was completed. Interesting enough RSC voume was 2 to 4 X its regular volume 2 days before the announcment was made. mmmmmm..Let's see ...Strateco up 20% in 2 days before the option announcment was made. Insider tipping...that just wouldn't be very honest. Maybe you can shed some light on the 20% jump for Strateco. I would be honestly interested as knowledgeable investors wouldn't jump in a stock at any price unless there was a time urgency to get in.
