And Futures expiry too - all the ASX 200 constituents had pretty heavy vol opens
Nope. Well not through the main bourse anyway.
Today is index option expiry - so even non-optionable (my newly invented word) stocks may have some additional activity.

Well done GG.
Your initial plan was to wait for the pullback that retests the BO level at 0.55. CHECK.
Your next plan was to wait for a close above 0.60. CHECK.

Investors welcome APN News & Media move to spin-off NZ business
JAKE MITCHELL, DANIEL PALMER THE AUSTRALIAN MAY 14, 2016 12:00AM
Investors have welcomed APN News & Media’s moves to spin off its New Zealand business and the company’s associated $182 million capital raising.
APN shares surged 11.1 per cent to 70c after emerging from a trading halt on Friday.
The company requested the trading halt on Monday when The Australian revealed it was poised to launch a rights issue to pay down debt ahead of the demerger of its Kiwi business, NZME.
APN secured close to $160m from the institutional component of its $182m equity raising, as 95 per cent of eligible shareholders took up their rights, in a book run by Credit Suisse and UBS.
The shortfall bookbuild cleared at 65c a share, a sharp rise on the 53c offer price and above the most recently traded price of 63c before the trading halt.
Following the NZME demerger, APN plans to sell its regional newspapers, leaving the company with radio and outdoor advertising assets, which have been the two best-performing traditional mediums over the past three years.
Investors have so far reacted positively to news of a planned tie-up of APN’s New Zealand assets with those of Fairfax Media.
While Fairfax’s shares fell 2.7 per cent to 91c yesterday, they are up 13.8 per cent since Monday when The Australian revealed its intentions to also spin off its Kiwi assets.
The retail component of APN’s equity raising will open on Wednesday.
There has been little information provided about the structure of the proposed NZ merger, which would create a company with combined revenue of about $803m and earnings of about $141m.

Macquarie Securities analyst Andrew Levy said an obvious potential structure would involve Fairfax receiving shares in the combined company in exchange for rolling its assets into NZME.
“While NZME is likely to attract the higher valuation of the two, Fairfax’s final shareholding would also be determined by gearing decisions,” Mr Levy said in a note to clients.
