<<Looks like the large institutions are buying IOM>>

Hello Michael,

I downloaded every single IOM bid and ask order
for today's transactions. I then loaded the
data into MS Excel, and filtered out all buy and
sell orders greater than 100,000 shares. I then
sorted the data by time of day.

The following chart leads me to believe that most
of the large buy orders (bid column) are coming
from the large institutions.
Most sell orders were for small quantities.
In my opinion, it looks like the small investors
are selling IOM shares for all the reasons
discussed on this thread (ie. margin calls,
uncertainty, etc...) and the large institutions are
buying IOM shares at a discount.

I will NOT sell my IOM shares at a discount to
these institutions.

What do you think????
