Yellow, the US's fifth-largest trucking company, witnessed a share price surge of 387.5% despite ceasing operations. Speculations arise about a bankruptcy loan and a large-scale purchase by an investor.

Timothy Dooner gave some insight into this, saying, āA bankruptcy loan is in the works, and I've just learned that a 'whale' made a significant purchase, which explains some of the activity."
