In this week's BUSINESS WEEK (coming out this weekend) P.S. The Yahoo DBCC board is a scary place - all these basic questions with no DD. Talk about jumping on a bandwagon without knowing anything about the stock. Reminds me of MALL... a day after it went from 25 to 29 I saw a bunch of people there with similar questions... (i.e. WHAT IS THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MALL AND UBID!!???) Then the next day the MMs did a nice little shake out back down to 24 or 25 and about 10 posts were by newbies saying "I sold out!" (i.e. like they expect a stock never goes down... sheesh) MALL then proceeded to go to 40 within a week... then to 60 thereafter approaching the UBID IPO. It's just kind of scary seeing some of the questions I'm seeing on the DBCC Yahoo board. Anyways here is the article for us "sophisticated" SI investors ;) businessweek.com Mark
