The figures I had indicated there was around 20m in the last 2 days as well. I think if you bought on 25 Nov, then the 45 days is up tomorrow because the day of purchase and sale are not included in the calc. So, the 45 day rule should definitely be satisfied for everyone tomorrow.
At current prices, buyers at 68c and above pre-div will be making a loss if they bought for the dividend, so noellyn could be right that they are waiting for higher prices.
Of course, it may be the case that they were actually longer term buyers... look forward to seeing the new composition of the top 20 when the quarterly comes out at the end of the month. I think I might be in there this time around.
