Ascent Solar blasts off

• Beaten-down Ascent Solar (OTC:ASTI +53.8%) has skyrocketed on volume that's over 10x its daily average of 119K.
• No news has hit the wires to explain the move. The solar-powered accessory maker is just two days removed from carrying out a 1:10 reverse split to meet the Nasdaq's $1.00 minimum bid requirement.
