HaHa, Tom. Point well taken, but... The Business Week article has some great lines: i.e.: << CBS will contribute $30 million worth of advertising time on its television and radio stations to promote the Web site.>> and, << Although the IPO is expected to be priced at $10 to $12 a share, some pros believe the stock will blast off after the opening (boldface mine) --just like other recent IPOs of Internet outfits that serve robust niche markets.>> and, << ''Data Broadcasting shares are the way to play MarketWatch.Com before it goes public,'' says one New York investment banker. >> Now that sounds rather good!

Nope, Business week usually does the same thing as CNBC CEO apperance for a day or two... but Im looking at next Wed/Thu/Fri as the blockbuster days for DBCC... Also, you have a big installed base of investors/traders right now who are accumulating and on any drops they BUY BUY BUY... like I did yesterday in the 13s... So any drops will be met by buying... and really it doesnt matter to me what happens to the stock today or Monday or Tuesday... but rather late next week and early the week of the 11th. Plus more publicity is good... even if it adversely affects the stock price for a day or two. I was in NETS... which was in BW 2 weeks ago... it ran up that morning big time to like 11, then dropped all the way down to 8... and within a week proceeded to go to 14 ;) So as long as your outlook is longer than a day or two its all good. My opinion only, Mark
