EGGS will continue to soar for that same reason! Although EGGS float is larger, Mutual Funds and institutional investors are currently holding 50%. This percentage will considerably increase during the next few weeks, when every Tom, Dick & Harry will start asking their Money Managers:
"And what have you done for me lately as far as the Internet is concerned?"
So you will see a lot of the so called "window buying" happening in the next few weeks, to show the Momentum names in their portfolios and make their clients happy!
And why will they buy such names as ONSL and EGGS? The single most important reason here is: Brand Recognition! Same story as what happened with AOL and AMZN and YHOO in the past.
Small investors are beginning to hear of Egghead and OnSale.
My uncle, who is a total lay person as far as investments and stocks are concerned, phoned me the other day saying:
"Hi EGGHEAD, did you buy that thing today?"
Investing is 10% valuation but 90% psychology.

I know I have repeated this more than once, but the upside for BII.TO is far greater than ONSL. They are, simply put, a better company. IMO, if they sang this cable deal, this stock is $10 immediately. They have an UNSOLICITED invitation from the NASDAQ. President says they will take advantage of this probably in 1st QTR 1999. Then, IMO, they capitalize on their EXCLUSIVE arrangement with AOL and this stock joins the ONSL valuation. Through 1999, with AOL members, NSCP users, CABLE watchers, etc. I believe they will easily become the #1 auction site on the entire WEB. Do your own research, but I think this is a retirement maker.

I remain,
