Scary isn't it to think that a lot of people know sooner than we do and we are the "Avg. investor", not to mention that the "Avg. investor" is at work and not using Silicon for super fast News...so I guess we are to slow or Not really in the know like we would all like to believe, yes scary indeed :(

I attribute the price increase to the favorable mention on CNBC rather than a conspiracy in which some investors knew in advance of the press release. Do you have reason to think differently?

Elroy,

Not necessarily....at 3:30 an analyst went on CNBC and gave BWEB as one of his hot picks. Whether or not he had advance knowledge of this press release is unknown, but it could just be a coincidence.
