that margin call probably caused the further weakness this past week
and
now that that news is out and the shares are sold ... this should be able to start moving up in anticipation of a buyout/sale of company
that was a lot of shares that were dumped .....

PSINet on Thursday said chairman and CEO William L.
Schrader was forced to sell 11.4 million shares used to secure a bank loan. A margin call requires an investor
to put up cash or securities to back the stock bought
with borrowed funds.

Shares of PSINet dipped to 1.7187 in afterhours activity on the Island electronic communications network, following the news. PSINet stock rose 0.188 to 2 in Thursday's regular trading after the company announced the hiring of Goldman Sachs & Co. (NYSE: GS) to advise on alliances or a possible sale.

this is a good post ....
