Anthony, I hope you don't get sued for these allegations. I have a few points: 1) Underwriters of ETYS also included Merrill Lynch, BancBoston Robertson Stephens, and DLJ. 2) On IPO day, Thomas Weisel Partners analyst Christopher Vroom gave a strong buy recommendation. The firm did not underwrite ETYS and thus was allowed to issue research that day. 3) Back in August Merrill Lynch's Henry Blodget introduced his "1999 Holiday Basket" of eight Internet stocks, six were underwritten by Merrill Lynch including ETYS. Lauren Levitan Cooks of Robertson Stephens also gave her "thumbs up" on ETYS. 4) ETYS, which went public last May, has 11.1 million shares outstanding, but 109 million new shares was freed up on Nov. 15, 1999. 5) The VC (Sequoia Capital), bolted out of ETYS early 6)ETYS offered converts to raise money when the stock was in the 50s. Some traders bought the convert, and shorted the common against it. 7) Goldman's OTO continues to recommend ETYS. There are so much more to add, but I can't think of them all. BTW, do you know of any books or articles that will confirm your theory?
