I researched CSX's stock history on https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/CSX/history" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; and here is what I found:The major bump in price from 1/18 to 1/19 was a result of EHH coming to CSX rumors. Just the idea of him running CSX raised the stock price of $9.00s a share.
9/19/2016- $29.46 per share
1/19/2017- $43.23 per share
Today's average so far- $52.44 per share
Notice that over half of the price increase occurred before EHH was hired!
