With a margin as thin as that, a little bit of panic buying goes a long way.


If you dig deeper at your first link you can find a week stock which show the weekly stock you see 06/06 has 105,560, 06/13 has 106,241, 06/20 has 106,292 and 06/27 has 106,707. So using you logic below there would be 424,800.

107 / 270 < 1
