Methodology: Range is calculated using 30-day realized volatility via geometric Brownian motion (log-normal model). 68% band = ±1σ, 95% band = ±2σ. This is a statistical model, not a prediction. Past volatility does not guarantee future results. Not financial advice.

Investor takeaway: Investors should consider the implications of yesterday's decline, especially in light of Murchison's current market cap of CA$3.74 million and the lack of recent news to justify such a drop.
