ratan ala: cbs.marketwatch.com The above link is to a 4 part series that details the IPO process from start to finish. Here are two definitions from this site. Quiet period -- the time period in which companies are forbidden by the Securities & Exchange Commission to say anything not included in their prospectus which could be interpreted as hyping an offering. Starts the day a company files a S-1 registration statement and lasts until 25 days after a stock starts trading. Intent and effect of quiet period have been hotly debated. Roadshow -- a tour taken by a company preparing for an IPO in order to attract interest in the deal. Attended by institutional investors, analysts and money managers by invitation only. Members of the media forbidden As you can see, the roadshow is for big investors only. We will not know when it start, what they say or when it ends. It could already have finished for all we know. The roadshow will generate NO publicity, that is not it's purpose. SlY_
