Steve, Thanks for adding to our discussion on the "quiet period". So to summarize your post, you think that the underwriter has "pull" on the stock when it initiates coverage after the period? If Goldman underwrites a stock, then it will initiate a buy more than likely at the end of the quiet period. And since Goldman is a powerful analyst firm, the stock surges upwards. If a less powerful underwriter is involved, then the stock may not move upwards as quickly. **StockHawk...you are on to it...g* I think we need to start tracking these better... MMK

Steve Davis...IPO's I guess we just need to keep a 'calendar' of stocks as they IPO.. Your point about the underwriter is a good one..stay with the 'quality' underwriters..We can use my prior post as a reference and build from there. I was looking at this coming week's offerings and three seemed interesting to me.. all in the internet space.. FLAS 3mm shs = Flashnet MLTX 3mm shs = Multext IVIL 3.6mm shs = I-Village Jim in CT .. add others as you seem them
