I bought more just before the trading halt and haven't bought or sold any since it resumed trading. When the company put out the last PR about going private, I figured maybe the halt had to do with counting shares for the transfer.

Imo, any buying after the halt was lifted is purely speculative and should be treated as such.

On the other hand, it may be people are being discouraged from buying more to aid shorts but at this point, it's to difficult to know one way or the other.
