Tom, What are you talking about? << just think about the one or two who might listen to all the "irrational" exuberance on this thread and buy MALL at $50 or higher, because Mr. Haenisch and many others were hyping that UBID will open at $75 or $100. It's a sure win! There is no possibility for UBID to close even at $40. It just won't happen. UBID will open like TGLO did, but no way UBID can tumble like TGLO did, because Mr. Haenisch said different.>> NEVER SAID THERE WAS NO POSSIBILITY THAT MALL DROPS TO $40, I SAID IT WAS UNLIKELY SINCE I ANTICIPATE UBID TO OPEN ABOVE $80. Will MALL or UBID eventually, someday, drop down to $40 - PERHAPS? Tom, you have been posting since MALL was at $23 that one should short this stock - you actually said you shorted MALL at $28 then again at $36 then you said "I only filled 1/3 of my intended SHORT position...." VERY EXPENSIVE TOM! You mention "irrational exuberance"! WHAT is irrational about a 100% to 200% + returns over the last two weeks? IT IS REAL, most of the people who have been lurking or posting have realized these type of returns (if they were long)! Ask them if they have been irrational? EVERYTHING YOU SAID SO FAR HAS BEEN IRRATIONAL! REMEMBER TOM, I CLEARLY STATED THAT THE SAFEST PLAY WOULD BE TO BE COMPLETELY "OUT" OF MALL BY THE TIME THE IPO COMES OUT! The hype, however, is not over. CNBC is just now featuring MALL, mentioning why it is climbing so far so fast. And with all the other e-commerce stocks going up as well, I WOULD RATHER BE LONG MALL GOING INTO THE IPO THEN SHORT! THAT IS ALL I SAID! FINALLY TOM, how about a little wager between two gentlemen: I'll owe you an "OFFICIAL APOLOGY" if MALL is lower than yesterday's close by the time the IPO comes out ($47 1/2) if MALL is higher than $47 1/2 you owe me an apology - DEAL? Enjoy your holidays! Rico p.s. Personally, I really don't care where MALL goes after the IPO, I WILL BE OUT! TOO DANGEROUS!
