When a share price can be almost wiped out by an old newspaper article without a date being discovered by the Google news browser, I'm not surprised by anything. Markets are jittery and almost any rumour can make people do strange things. And when it becomes a herd mentality, Oile jumps $25 in a day, stock markets jump 600+ points, etc.
