Only 19000 shares traded so far today and the US has a national holiday so exchanges are not open. Last week the average shares traded per day was about 70000. With only Canadians able to buy shares we now see the potential volume being bought and sold from the states. Those trips to the states that Murray did must have some people from the US buying shares. Probably more day traders than long term shareholders, but it shows us what involvement they have in our day to day trading and share price. Everyone is definitely on holidays, but staying at the current levels we are at until news announcements sits ok with me. No doubt they are done trenching and have new samples and old ones from before being assayed, also that the drills are turning and some cores have been sent away already. Management is keeping a tight lid on this for a reason. Vultures must be circling and may try to take Tessoro for a song on early results. I think they are keeping results close to the company to ensure low ball offers do not come in too early. The next 4 weeks will be very quiet, slow, but after that things should heat up in Aug.
