Thanks for the info, Mr.buzz. I'm quite glad some institutions got cold feet in front of Greenspan/quarter-end jitters. Bear, Stearns also did WITC, which briefly floundered with a lack of aftermarket support (punishment by other brokerages for going with the Bear?) before rocketing up. WITC was a huge winner for me this week. ISLD is a keeper.

ISLD at $17 is still very cheap. I thought the IPO would open at $30+ and love the temporary mispricing by the market. $250 million revenues in a couple years and tempting buyout target by one of the fiber boys. djane
