Between 3 and 4 o'clock this afternoon there were 5 or 6 trades of 10,000 shares or more and the price rose quite quickly.
______________
This mention of AMES appeared in Herb Greenberg's column in The Street .com today. I have excerpted just the lead in and the reference to AMES.

Discussing beaten down small cap stocks -

"Some [small caps] are so low that New York money manager
Roger Lipton has gone on a buying binge. What
makes Lipton worth listening to is that he knows
hype when he sees it. His claim to fame is being
the first person ever publicly quoted as predicting
doom for Boston Chicken (BOSTQ:Nasdaq),
and he recently was the first to prick AMF
Bowling's (PIN:NYSE) balloon. (He also doesn't
like Ralph Lauren (RL:NYSE); the pony has
become too commercialized.)

So, what's he doing buying companies like
Dress Barn (DBRN:Nasdaq), Ames
Department Stores (AMES:Nasdaq)
and
General Nutrition Centers (GNCI:Nasdaq)?
"It's a question of confidence in their growth
rates, and I have confidence in their growth
rates," he says."
emphasis mine.
