People: Thanks for the great info.

Question: Why is it important to take profit a day or two before the IPO offering? I've heard this strategy bantered about quite a bit lately. Is it because any buying interest in BKS will dry up once the IPO is offered? Is it simply a shift-of-focus thing, i.e., smart money will be trying to buy into the IPO thus leaving BKS open to shorters?
Jeez, I can't believe it. I'm talking like I actually know what I'm saying.
Thanks for any and all advice in advance.
