Perhaps some good news in the price action this weekPerhaps there is some good news in the price action from Thursday and Friday. Someone dumped 200 000 shares into the US market for MDM, and the share price dropped "only" 8%, and it promptly recoverd half that drop the following day.
Now, being someone having a bit of a memory, perhaps two years ago, such a sale would have crushed a stock trading only 3k shares a day... and now, it seems to be just a buying opportunity, should someone be sitting on the sideline with a bit of dry powder.
Thursday's TMX action was 1.1MM shares, and Fridays was 365k, not that bad a price response/recovery, considering the recent average for MPV has been on the order of 200k shares (according to TMX) and most days(looking at 2016) trades 40k-50k shares.
In the olden days, this might have been considered a 'bear raid', but IMHO the "raid" was mostly repulsed by the following day... or perhaps one large mutual fund decided to 'lighten up' or 'run the stops'. Who knows.
