    A 2.7% increase isn't what I call a surge, but it's still good news.

      If the exchange's average gain is 0.3%, then I'd say a 2.7% gain is a surge. Even someone who knows nothing of stock trading could tell you that.

    I wouldn't call a 2.7% increase a surge either...if I didn't know how to read stocks.

    Good for Sony though. Even if it isn't a big surge.

    Err that's a pretty small surge actually. Well at least Sony is getting somewhere I guess. But it's not much of a deal at all really.

    It is quite a big surge actually. People don't deal with a couple of shares you know. They deal in thousands even hundreds of thousands shares, and when you get to the top dogs, 2.7% is a BIG deal.
