Default "The motive of the algorithm is still unclear" (John Melloy, CNBC correspondent).

I guess shares/stocks are not only traded during drunker benders: Gasoline/Oil trading while in an alcoholic blackout, as reported a few days ago in England; but it appears that shares/stocks (or any commodity) can be traded by computer programming issues gone awry (algorithm's).
