JBB - this is going to sound ironic - I don't know! <vbg> Two theories - nobody was apparently impressed with the Alex Brown move to Strong Buy from Market Perform; or, it slid at a faster rate than the market as a whole on the economic growth and consumer confidence reports. There is a discrimination lawsuit ruling that may have some punitive damages attached to it now, but it is pretty small potatoes given the capitalization of the company. Jitters? Thank Al for the really encouraging drop in interest rates? Beats me. Mr. K.
