Manny, what's happening to Suretrade is mainly because BBRB is now part of Fleet (recent takeover of BB by Fleet), which also happens to own Suretrade.

So it's highly likely that Suretrade will participate in most BBRB offerings, plus maybe others here and there.

Did recently open a Suretrade account, but haven't sent any money yet. Suretrade prefers $100k for participation, but it doesn't say for sure that you can't get if you don't have that much. Suretrade has about 350k accounts. So I'm not sure whether it's worth opening an account there or not.

Suretrade has ipos. Just ioid for QUICK. Generally allocates to accounts w $100 Like their IPO order interface Shows order info and amount allocated. Weird in that you have to place a market order or a limit and does not provide the expected range. placed a limit for 300 at 10
