Oniva IPO has been set. The squeeze I was waiting for
is finally here. Very difficult to predict how high it
will go. It could stop in a day, it could go on
for 5 days. ICGE's history says that the fifth
day of the squeeze is usually the final one.
The nest 4 trading days should be very positive.
If the market cooperates, it could go up
an average of 20 points for the next 4 days. That
would put it squarely against its all time high.

FOr ICGE to go beyond that in the short term would
be difficult unless there are couple of more IPO's
announced soon.

Onvia.com sets IPO at 8 mln shares, $11-$13/shr

WASHINGTON, Feb 3 (Reuters) - Onvia.com Inc., an e-marketplace for small businesses to buy and sell services and products, said Thursday it plans to sell eight million shares in a price range of $11-$13 a share in its initial public offering.

The company, based in Seattle, said it will likely net about $87.9 million from the offering which will be used for working capital, to fund operating expenses and pay for possible future acquisitions, according to an amended prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

After the offering, there will be about 76.2 million shares of common stock outstanding in the company, putting its initial market capitalization at $914.4 million based on a $12 per share initial midpoint price.

The underwriters, led by Credit Suisse First Boston, have been allotted an extra 1.2 million shares to purchase to meet heavy demand.

Onvia.com has applied to list its shares on Nasdaq under the symbol ``ONVI' (NasdaqSC:ONVI - news) once it goes public.
