The Market Makers see just how much they need to (temporarily) drop the bid in order to fill another limit order (and they often have many limit orders waiting on both buy & sell sides.). Remember the song "It's Easy Like Taking Candy From A Baby?"? Merry Christmas, everyone! MV BABER

re 10% stop loss and 10% loss But lately, you could sell at 10% loss and still buy the same stock back lower in a few days, if you still wanted it. Except maybe for AT%T. Sad, Freeus

Arnie, do you know how many analog subscribers McCaw Cellular had before it was bought by T? They were never cash-flow positive, were they? I see there's speculation on the Yahoo boards that T is another possible suitor for Nextel. At today's prices, NXTL is still trading at 20 and change per POP. Nextel's entire market cap is still barely higher than the amount BelSouth paid just for its Sao Paolo licenses (excluding towers). Takeover speculation could bid NXTL shares up in a hurry. This is the only national digital system that's mostly built. When the MCI deal bid CALL up to 56, it was like a gold mine that was still being prospected. More and more, Al, I'm enjoying the Yahoo Boards as there are several people who really understand Nextel, and a lot less bull shit. MV BABER 10X Michigan Table Tennis Champion
