* Coinstar Shrs Continue Falling, But Strong Pdt Demand Seen 128 Words 1371 Characters 12/15/97 16:21 Dow Jones News Service (Copyright (c) 1997, Dow Jones & Company, Inc.) * NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--Shares of Coinstar Inc. (CSTR) fell nearly 7% Monday following a 5.3% drop Friday. Shawn Milne, an analyst with Hambrecht & Quist Inc., said the company continues to see strong consumer and retailer demand for its network of self-service coin-counting machines. Milne said he was unaware of any developments at the company that triggered a stock drop. Milne noted that because the stock is "not too liquid," it tends to move quickly. Other analysts and a company representative didn't immediately return calls seeking comment. * Coinstar shares were trading recently at 8 3/8, down 5/8, or 6.9%, on Nasdaq volume of 146,000 shares, compared with average daily turnover of 36,100. Shares dropped to 7 5/8 earlier. -Nancy Beiles; 201-938-5393 (END) DOW JONES NEWS 12-15-97 04:21 PM
