today's volume.

There will be some, probably considerable, volume today and for the next few days that will be traders buying and selling for a tick or two. This could happen a few times a day. It would not be wise to assume that all shares traded are being lost from long term investors.

Dont assume that all those traded have ended up in the hands of AWE.

Apart from the day traders there will also be some buying that will be expecting a higher offer somewhere down the track.
