Last year I had a lot of fun trading IPO's. I played PHCM, ATON, FDRY, SCMR, AKAM, CMRC, PPRO, and several others. I made some good money on these. It was a real adrenalin rush. I glue myself to the seat waiting for the IPO to come out. As soon as it did, I'd jump on that incredibly bloated, inflated price and ride the momentum up as far as possible and take some profits. Then for the next few days it runs way up and way down. I haven't noticed the same excitement for IPO's this year. Many of them fizzled without a huge run up compared to last year. BKHM, STLW, and many others haven't enjoyed the same thrills of last year. Perhaps this is good. Have you seen AKAM lately? Speaking of AKAM, they certainly look attractive at this level. Perhaps they have bottomed out... I'll be watching for this new batch of IPO's. Do you have a list of what's coming out and when? Red Herring used to have a list of what they thought were going to be hot. I'll have to look when I get a chance. -ClapOffToWork
