Even so, that doesn’t mean Dawson Geophysical is rising without reason. Investors have likely taken an interest in the company due to its ties to the oil industry. Small-cap oil stocks have experienced positive movement recently following the conflict between Israel and Iran last week.
DWSN has been swept up in that positive oil stock movement, sending shares 500% higher in pre-market trading today. That comes with more than 15 million shares traded, compared to a three-month daily average of about 6,670 units.
