Buck...Re the "Specialist"... Simply put, it's the firm designated as the market maker in the stock. I'm pretty sure only one specialist can be designated per stock, though it's possible to be a specialist in more than one stock. There's a variation for the OTC market which allows for multiple market makers. Am sure Wendell will correct me if I'm wrong. P.S. Hope Myrtle Beach was a nice respite. More weekend misery here in NY. Jean
