Well, I really don't know if upper management would have to approve. Just know that takeover info would not be released to a "rookie" like Ms. Butt. Hope you are right that BS wouldn't be able to do it. What a bunch of A-holes. Thanks for the informative reply.

I just sold a bunch of July 50 call options. Should I cover tomorrow? Any opinion?

gbh, Thought this was interesting from Thompson I-Watch today: 17-Feb-00 14:03:47 While many financial-related issues are slumping lower today after Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan?s ?hawkish? comments, on-line brokers are bouncing higher. Knight/Trimark Group has climbed $1 7/8 to trade at $37 7/8 on heavy volume. Notably, NITE has broken out of its recent trading range, moving above $37 for the first time since mid-January. Over 5.8 million shares have been exchanged, while the average daily volume is 2.7 million shares. This morning, ABN Amro issued a bullish note on NITE, emphasizing the strong rise in the NASDAQ and NYSE average trading volumes, as well as NITE?s gain in market share. The positive sentiment has encouraged speculative investors to jump back into the stock, advancing its recent recovery. During the past three sessions, NITE has climbed 20%, reversing some of its 40% drop over the past three months. The I-Watch pre-trade data is light as much of the activity is from short-term oriented investors. However, the super buy messages illustrate some institutional support at these higher price levels. In the post-trade market, institutional investors have claimed 35% of the total volume. Much of this activity stems from market makers and professional day traders. Bob
