Stan, believe me I'm cynical as well, I was looking for a way to make a buck, however from what I could see the underwriters were doing more buying than selling up to the day of the offering, in addition (and I always see this) as soon as a new share offering is made the price always drops (Lets face it, its easy money if you can short something above the offering price), the same way the price drops when you see a share consolidation. For my money I will always prefer trading on the TSE or NYSE over Nasdaq (you want to talk about shady, the marketmakers on the Nasdaq even after cleaning up their act are still very bad)
