I wonder why on Monday, Oct 29th their stock lost about 1/3 of its value(from $6.06 to $4.30) on much higher than normal volume(20K shares).

Hi Regis,

It was over $7 a week or so before. They have had two bad quarters, and other question marks keep popping up, but whenever you have a large block trade on a stock like this that really doesn't have a lot of liquidity, the price will be affected. I hope that wasn't an insider trade as that would be a no no if rumors of purchasing Weaver turn out to be true. I'll try to find out more about this for you.

There's been a store in Northampton, The Identity Store, that has stocked TLF items for at least 10 years. I presume it's an upgrade of the existing (albeit limited) outlet.
