"Who knows what and how" Easy answer. People noticed: the long term unbroken ascending triangle, a nice Feb monthly chart and the short term positive technical indicators that Caruso pointed out this week. These people then availed themselves of the wealth of info that has been shared here and also did their own DD like listening to Mark's "Uptick News" interview. Based on that, many have decided to get off the fence and initiate or add to their positions. A wise move IMHO!
