Nice move today .... which I assume was partly due to the forthcoming big internet IPO XOOM. I can only guess that the price will remain strong through the IPO as briefing.com is likely to cover the comparisons between the big three .... GCTY(GeoCities), XMCM(Xoom) & TGLO ... so that when Xoom zooms ... as usual, they all will !!

I think that's only part of it. Other factors which I think added to today's run:

- Volpe Brown's Buy recommendation.
- Anticipation of other coverage starting.
- EWBX's run (I consider TGLO and EWBX sister stocks since they IPO'd close together - investor psychology I guess)
- Anticipation of a EBAY like run once the stock becomes shortable and marginable (and short squeezable)
- General panic buying that's common to these small float internet stocks

If anyone brokerage comes out with a 12 month price target you'll see it in 5 days.

GCTY doesn't seem like it's "in play" but its turn will come eventually, good luck!

James.
