Mike, re: instinet after hours

Who's really hammering out the numbers after hours. "Twinkies" or major fund and institution players trading big block positions, that said they didn't want to pay the retail market premium on the stock.

If it's twinkies, I'm amazed at their seeming power. If it's the institutions or money managers, I'm angry with their ability to force the price based on huge positions. Somehow, fair market doesn't seem quite so fair. Or maybe fairer for some than others???

I sent an e-mail to TheStreet.com, asking if they'd write an article on what happens in after hours trading, and I specifically referenced what happened with DELL today. I'm hoping they'll put something out tomorrow.
