Nothing more than I heard earlier today. My source is one of the head traders at a large institutional market maker. They were on the ask early in the day and on the bid later in the day, nowhere at the end.

The story that was given me was the potential of an eBay announcement but nothing more specific than what I reported earlier. If I hear anything else I will post as long is it is rumor and not something that I know will be reported.

Please be advised that what I did was report a rumor that something was likely to be announced. If I had been given definitive information I would not have shared that with anyone and would not have acted upon same as that would be considered "inside information" and is something that no one should ever take advantage of. I seldom hear rumors of this nature but since that was all that it was, and there was nothing definite about same, I spoke up.

I pride myself, as all on this thread do, on being right based upon my own judgment. It appears that the short sellers have had their day and that the lid on this stock has a good chance to be removed. I have a pretty busy evening but will keep abreast of other opinions and add to them if deemed beneficial.
