Actually I believe that ISPD will be good for a quick bounce, yes, DSLN is the example, and we closed in the zone of the ipo price, what is support so far, and I believe that it will taking off soon. if you are happy with 30% or are gready and pray for 100% that depends on the traders style. I believe that I will be able to bail with 30% next week, but I speculate for a doubler, and will watch it closely. ISPD has shown that people are willing to pay pay 20$$ or more for it. Once the first ralley takes place, the daytraders will jump in and those who sold ipo shares full of frustration will buy in again. As for the news rumor, read this somewhere on yhoo, I believe. but take this post from yhoo FWIW: ----------------------- Re: Asking ISPD for Info - Rec'd! 11/2/1999 12:52 pm EST by: lil_rocket_2000 Msg: 26 of 56 Hi folks, Steve Ide at Interspeed returned my e-mail personally via phone > call this morning.
