Starting? Brian it's been a momentum play since May. The would hold at this point or not initiate any new positions. Overall I'm a real bear on this company 8.5B in Market cap, no virtually no profits and singing on a unproven business model using 2nd tier companies to prop up their revenue. Incidently, yesterday's move was supposedly prompted on the Travel Preview deal. AOL owns 15% of this company and Kimsey also owns a fair piece himself. Travel Preview annouced their IPO on Oct 6 with the Aol deal noted. However, when I spoke to Wendy Goldberg with Media Relations yesterday she firm said this was the first announcement of the contract. I guess they really don't know what's going on with their own company. Another thought is with the institutional ownership up to 75-80% I guess these fund managers are in the as well, only getting information from DJ. Anyways as you can tell I am a bear but I do have to give the marketing & PR people credit they have done a great job.
