Dear Sarmad: Thanks for your reply. So, I guess we shall have to wait until tomorrow's newspaper to get SEG's closing rather than after hours price. It is precisely because of what you say that causes me to prefer looking at the closing rather than after hours price: > However, the after hours volume is usually too small to be a reliable indicator of how it will open tomorrow. Oh well. At least we are up, regular or after hours closing! Regards, Lynn

Here's a prime example of what happens when after hours instead of closing prices are reported: SEG had a delayed opening this morning. According to a news alert, the closing price was 68 6/8 yet we got the after hours price of 76. First, here's the alert: Tuesday March 14, 9:30 am Eastern Time Alert: NYSE Indication Last 68 6/8 Bid 72 Ask 74 (NYSE:SEG) biz.yahoo.com With 5,200 shares traded, the price of SEG is showing _down_ 2 1/4 at 73 3/4 BUT SEG is actually up 5 points from the close.
