The problem is that this is a chicken-or-egg scenario. Did the interest peak because of a pump, or is it that people started buying in because of some news that we aren't all aware of? Sadly, I suspect it's more the former. We just got a Bloomberg mention yesterday and today we're at the lowest volume levels in a week.
So it would be good to get an analyst on it, but we should be pretty careful that we do real analysis and not jump to conclusions:)
