After dipping beneath 4 a share one week ago, Internet grocer Peapod (PPOD) of Illinois has seen its shares rise smartly. On Thursday, the shares cracked 6, up more than 10 percent in a day. They reached as high as 14 last October. Investment firm Westfalia earlier this week started coverage of Peapod as a "speculative long-term buy." Funny. Forrester Research just said that it has high hopes for Internet commerce in every category you could think of -- except food and other groceries.

Peapod, a 1997 initial public offering, has never rewarded early investors after its shares were offered at $16 a share last summer. Two months ago, several news services speculated that America Online (AOL) or another large online network would bid for all of the company's shares.
