At 12:45 it pushed to $9.00, a lower high under the $12.70 top. By 12:46 it was back down to $7.65. It kept sliding: $7.17 at 12:51 and $6.63 at 1:02 p.m. It dipped to $5.93 at 2:12 p.m. and spent the afternoon around $6, then $5.60 at 3:59 p.m. The 4:00 minute traded at $5.72.
In the regular session, 4.08 million shares traded, about 0.6 times the float, at about 2.5 times its normal volume. After hours, 89,149 shares traded between $5.28 and $6.06, and the last trade we have was $5.50 at 7:58 p.m.
What to take from it
- A halt reopen can be thin or deep, and you can't tell which from the price alone. On this day a 5,000-share buy cost $6,203 over the screen at the 11:12 reopen and $0 over at the 11:17 reopen.
- A halt can reopen far from where it stopped. The 11:58 halt stopped at $10.70 and reopened at $12.19, and the day's high came in that same minute.
- After the top, the next push stopped lower. $12.70 at 12:09 p.m., then $9.00 at 12:45 p.m. By 3:59 p.m. it was at $5.60, 56% below the high.
