RE:RE:RE:RE:Interesting Close For BteTVE, HWX, BTE all had final 10 minute spikes in volume. I want to say it's because they are all big clearwater plays, but more likely this relates to index funds buying for Dec 1 due to these names being added to various indexes in December.
Index funds get punished for tracking error, so they like to have their full weighted amount right from day one to avoid this tracking error.
Some of the names didn't see a spike in price suggesting that these were preordained deals with sellers to the index funds. BTE must not have had enough big sellers so some funds had to grab shares in the open market which spiked the price - a positive sign for BTE. Less people interested in selling is a good thing.
