Interesting, you've been in the market for probably longer than your HC membership would indicate and you're asking me this question? I think you know.

There are many short term swing traders in this stock, the FA type that sell on news and buy the pull backs, and the other swing traders acting on their price chart signals.
Then ofcourse there are those who just don't get it at all and are spooked with oiler volatility. Not to mention the diabolical swing trader who's been playing the minds of the emotional.

Price moves are made by participants for a multitude of reasons.
I think you already have a take on it.
