RE:No volume ... curious ... I will hazard to guess why there is zero trading today!
For some odd reason our Market Makers, Instinet being one, are pulling their reins in.
So the question is not so much why there is no trading, but where are the Market Makers?
Below is a months worth of Instinets trading which clearly shows a diminishing role in activity!
