Here is a comprehensive(?) ranking of all the backdoor IPOs

that I have followed (* denotes ones I've actually played). I would like to see how others would rank these issues, sorry if I missed any or messed any up (all by memory).

ALREADY PLAYED OUT (backdoor/new issue):

TSQD/DRIV* - last fall, TSQD owns ~27%
WCAP/COOL* - last fall
MKTW/DBCC - recent
UBID/MALL - recent
TMCS/forgot - recent

PENDING - IN PLAY - GOOD POTENTIAL:

UIHIA/UPCOY* - goes this week, lots of potential
SFE/VERT - this week, room left to run
NAVR/net radio - status unknown
BNYN/switchboard - status unknown
KLOC/800ussearch* - status unknown, but I like it
XTON/e-lottery* - status unknown
DLIA/ivillage - status unknown, but nice
CGTVY/prodigy - prodigy will probably not do too well

PENDING - PROBABLY NOT MEANINGFUL:

UNH/Healtheon* - owns 10%, but UNH is too large to be impacted
PTEC/priceline - seems over priced IMO
PWCC - overplayed
OTEXF/miningco.com - not enough impact on OETXF

PLAY OF THE WEEK:

BANY/ANYI - just started on Friday, relatively low volume, no PR has gone out yet on the SEC filing that caused Friday's rally. Could go to $3-5 range, here's my analysis on the SEC filing posted Friday morning when BANY was still $0.75:

Message 7674582

IMO - until a PR comes out, this one will be a great play for diligent SI backdoor players.
