MeD-- the SEC has funny rules on IPOs if you or a family member are registered as a broker. No IPOs from any underwriter! Have not had one in the past couple years. Damn they used to be fun (and profitable) to flip and use the profits to buy a little on the dip to hold. A year or so ago you could buy at the open and get out in 15 minutes to 4 hours with a good chunk. Now the damn things open next to the moon and often come down most of the day,,, the few like RHAT are next to impossible to play and the slugs like Martha Stewart are great to miss... Any that <<"should run about as far and as fast as RHAT.">> would be great to get at any time except during a mkt tanking... ;-]--- Luck with them,,,
