The price of FNTN has a history of reacting very slowly when it comes to positive news. In the past there have cases of a couple of days between the move up and the news. Prearranged?, I wonder.

TMK: It is a curiously tight spread - and a VERY controlled top end. I don't know enough to even guess at the cause, but this is a different pattern. Maybe somebody out there has an answer or theory. Wally

Hello TMK: My take on the bid/ask is that the market makers are holding down the bid in that they are the ones who are in control. I have seen some ask prices so far today as high as $1.10 and bid prices as low as $0.56. MM are the ones who set the overall tone for BB stocks. I also believe that the close spread of only 0.01 means that there are not a lot of loose shares to be bought at the moment. Just my opinion. Best regards, Bill Fortune III
