FWIW --

I am a casual reader of this thread and have a very small position in IFLY. I wasn't able to find the S1s on freeedgar the other day when I was doing my DD, but I did check-out the short interest in the stock. The short interest as of 12/98 is 410.6K shares, which is a ratio of 2.37.

I'm pretty sure the short interest increased in the last week when the share price jumped to $12+ (just a personal heuristic-based opinion).

With the small float in this security, I am glad I am long in my very small way given the short interest and the potential explosion this stock could have Monday. Disregarding the loyal long term investors for the moment, the day traders I am sure will be playing IFLY like a banjo for a couple days which, with this short interest ratio, I am sure will trigger many calls.

Prosperous trading!

Actually, I had not posted it. Rather, I read the S1 cover to cover (not just flipped through it, as one prick implied). I was amazed at all of the crim names involved and their past histories. Since freeedgar does not have it, perhaps someone else can provide a link since it was obviously filed as IFLY was IPO'd recently. Thanks for at least trying to go there.

If no one has provided the info by the time the market opens, I will go to Bloomberg and get the file on Monday or Tuesday (and post at a very opportune time) which most assuredly will have it, as it has even the most arcane names. But surely someone can find it before then? I mean IF I were long I would want to know before the open.....
