Its important to remember the trading vs investment philosophy. Whatever the long term fundamentals of the company, the pressure is likely to be on the buy side for the stock given the underwriters and the end of the quiet period. Nothing else maters short term.

To cite another specific example ... NITE may have seemed to have great fundamentals ... yet the price action has been awful for a long time. It was not a trade ... except on the short side. Conversely, GOTO has shown tremendous price action and although it tanked, has gone on to new highs. I mention these simply because I know you are long NITE and made a bunch of money shorting GOTO. One was an investment (going wrong) the other a trade .. which paid off handsomely as a trade .... but would have been an awful (short) investment.

Personally, NZRO reminds me of LOOK ....... so despite the float, it could post some decent gains leading up to the end of the QP. JMHO.

Donny, come on now, pal! Why would you demean students who do cafeteria work in order to afford the high cost of tuition at Brasco U.?

Was the bagel shop successful? Was it time for that individual to advance and use already demonstrated successful executive management skills elsewhere? Why you wanna put people down, Donny?

And by the way, no one is making those comparisons--only you did!

I like to think of this as 1.7 million accounts,
rather than subscribers. Perhaps it is more correct
to think of it as 1.7 million households, containing
multiple users in some cases.

My thinking is there are perhaps a few million actual
distinct users of the system. This is good.
