Hi Todd,

Have you or anyone else noticed or wondered about the strange spreads as soon as the market closes? When it happens there won't be a single share traded for the first 10-20 minutes of the next open. I called my quote service provider about it a few weeks ago when it happened, to see if there was something wrong with the server. They checked several sources and told me it had not opened yet. I sent an e-mail off to the SEC and got back the usual form letter.

It is almost like they wait for a bunch of market orders to come in so they can pocket the difference. Any ideas?

Regards,

Don
