bitstamp and other markets testing to 645 now, any important news or only testing with more volume than we used to in last week ?

Thanks Solarstorm, it seems like its a news allowing to test the lower support indeed.
If it wasn't for the Gox stuff this would normally be bullish news. People in Bitcoin want to have their cake and eat it - no regulation or protection unless it happens to be convenient
From the link:
Any bitcoin transactions are taxable when they fulfill requisitions stated by laws on income tax, corporate tax and consumption tax
If you have to pay VAT on every single trade, that would be very bearish news. But I have no clue, what the statement exactly means.
