IOM should still be suffering from margin calls. This should last the next couple of days.... If we ever do get to under 5 and most margin is called in, at least we won't have to worry about wild overextended individual investors. :) Do you think IOM attorney is happy with her recent 20M share purchase :)

I couldn't help myself. Shorted at $7 1/4. We'll see if I'm right. My travels to other IOM boards across the net have revealed that Bears are already doing IOM math just like myself.-- some even calling for a $3 stock price. While I don't think this dip will be as bad as that, it should nonetheless serve as a warning. The realization of the projected loss factored into the stock price is just beginning. If individuals are doing the math and coming up with realistic prices under $5, you can bet Institutions are as well. And it will drive the price down.
