RE:Volume has dropped off a cliff this week It's just taking a breather. Including the royalty spin out the valuation has just moved from 18 cents to 40 cents. Time to catch the breath and then let future news propel it higher.
We have financials, lots of news on activity on optioned properties, as you mentioned Vulcan. I wouldn't be surprised if a large find comes up on one of these optioned properties and EPL's financials reflect a revenue boost on the underlying shares they hold of the optionee.
