<<I do think that IDC has a great/explosive potential.>>

As a speculative play it has some big potential upside provided you are willing to lose half or more of your investment.

I hate the way it trades though. I've been on vacation this week, and so have watched it a little more closely. In addition to the trading halt on Monday, today has seen some peculiar bid/ask imbalances. At times the quote screens will show 9 or even 17 thousand ask volume and only 100 bid volume. And it will stay that way for several minutes. But the price doesn't seem to move dramatically during those times. At one point, it was at 100 bid volume and 17,000 ask volume for about 5 minutes and the "RT" quote time was delayed about four minutes, but the price was still fluctuating around a little. Then it returned to normal and the price actually went up.

This may just be a problem with AMEX (I've never traded on AMEX before), but I've never seen the other exchanges act this way. I'll stay in for now, just makes me a little more nervous . . . .
