>there should be some requirements that at least 75% of total shares should be in float> No way. By saying something like that, I'm sure you'll be surprised to hear that even MSFT (for just one example) still has floated less than 75% of its outstanding shares. Also, I think the idea of halting volatility is ridiculous. Internets are just a small sub-sector of the entire stock market. They're glamorous and generate a lot of headlines, sure, but in the grand scheme of things their action really isn't that significant. The wildly volatile stocks will come and go--today's happen to be internet stocks, but it won't always be that way. At some point, the strong internet companies will begin to behave more normally; meanwhile, the weak companies will be forgotten in stock-market oblivion.
