Art, im trying to recall this from memory but it was about a year or so. Vette was around then. I think Orcinus had bought a huge amount that day and it all had to be put back the way it was.
The actul date? I dont remember.
It had to do that Copper Fox has a mailing list for who ever wanted e-mails from the company. Well this certain day, everyone got a e-mail before it had to go threw the right channels. What a train wreck!!!
The stock at opening bell dropped like a rock and I think a couple of hundered thousand shares traded in a hour or so.
This stock got haulted and everything that had happened from the opening bell had to be traded back the way it was.
It was a huge train wreck because many were waiting for weeks to make sure the stock that they started out with , is what they ended up with and others were waiting to makes sure the money came back in to there account.
If anyone remembers this fiasco, they can chime in if they want..But I do remember that it was a huge mess.
So as for companies leaking out information ....well I guess it can happen
