ROMT is looking very tempting at current prices. It seems to be forming a base above 3 1/2; ready to run next week in anticipation of the new egames.com site and name (March 1st). Someone pointed out that EFAX had a very similiar chart and ran on similiar news. Check it out.

A NEW TREND?

KaBloom! Doing to flowers what he did for office supplies, Tom Stemberg has opened two LARGE retail flower shops in the Boston area that sells flowers at low cost. Plans are to test the concept and begin to explore broader deployment. Located in all the trendy locations. kabloom.com

ROSI (U S Floral)http://www.usafp.com has consolidated a number of flower wholesalers to become at $1B the largest US flower company. CEO formerly from 1 800 FLOWERS. Board members from AOL and WFMI. Has set up a FEDX like distribution center in AK. More acquisitions in the making. Already producing very good earnings. Currently selling at book. IPO in late 97. Consolidations play can be very good or very bad.

This type of interest and consolidation of heretofore mom and pop operations is looming. I like the players and the approach from both.

Maybe something going on here.....
