wow, i ve seen a boatload of action on this and the wit ipo thread that makes NO sense to me.....are all the ipos popping 200% anymore? nut-uh so when folks do get one that pops, why not take the $$$ and run? sure, a few do continue to ramp, but many of these things are going straight down, and in a year or two , i wud bet that those that arent bot out, will run out of cash. screw holding a pos for 30 or 60 days, i mean how often does an account usually get allocated an ipo? every 2 months? 3? 6? take the $$ and run. obviously thats what the big boys are doing-theyre arent gonna ride a loser from 60 to 10 the internet isnt a new idea anymore and barriers to entry are minimal. seems like a crime to me, to let a nice potential profit turn into a loss
