<<One question for you Tom, Why didn't you wait to short MALL til right after the IPO? You have to admit, shorting it as early as you did was a MAJOR MISTAKE >> Rico, my intent was to stay neutral going into the IPO and short when UBID opens. When I reshorted on Wed at 46 5/16, my plan was to cover yesterday, but MALL ran to a level that I feel comfortable keeping my short way past the UBID IPO. It's not a mistake until I've covered for a loss. So now it's plan B. It'll turn out to be either a bigger mistake or a nice trade. Needless to say, I'm hoping for the latter. <<and WHY would you be long one e-commerce stock MZON and short another MALL?>> Because I want to make a few bucks, long or short. Regards, Tom
