Time to sleep. I'll wake up around 10am pacific and find my net stocks are all up around 10%.. Today is blastoff day! Any remaining shorts are going to get killed. I've never gone on such margin before, but I feel no fear! These things can only go up! The mania is here again.. You think daytraders even know what the yen is, much less how it affects our markets? THINK AGAIN! All they know is the ebay is going up another 10 points tomorrow.

>>Why are you so confident they won't do it again? You imply that this is a rigged [low-risk] game, << TomD, low-risk? If this was a low-risk game do you think I would of already sold off 2k shares? Rigged implies something illegal? I do like you using the term game though. The game of $billionaires getting these hyped IPO's before the average investor has been going on for how long? Did MS or DLJ offer you any shares @ 18, like my friend and I got? The only reason Dscm has less risk than most of these other on-line e-tailers, like Onsl is because of its owners. How much is Melinda Gates worth? Paul Allen? Did you know that John Doerr is worth over $10 billion dollars. Not too bad for a recruiter that only went to Harvard.;-)
