14:24 ET Riverstone Ntwrks (RSTN) 16.30 -1.58: Hearing from sources at Robertson Stephens that the firm commented this afternoon that they are concerned about the quality of earnings at RSTN due to the fact that yesterday's 10-Q filing revealed that 40% of May qtr revenues derived from companies in which RSTN owns debt or equity securities. Briefing.com would note that such investments have been commonplace for emerging tech firms, and that sales to related parties, which are of greater concern, were less than 1% of sales.
