I think there is a good chance we will see a drop tomorrow. Each time the fast stochastic has closed above 90, a drop seems to follow. Although, I'm not sure how to factor in the DOW 10k and the buy recs. Jeff

With today's volume, underwriters probably dropped most of their extra load ....at a very nice profit -- "thank you, thank you to all the little people out there." Talk about pump-n-dump. This is shameless, isn't it. I'm looking to unload mine into the gapup opening tomorrow. March 18, 1999 20:35 Egghead.com, Inc.

Anaxagoras, Sorry to see you trying to short on such a day as this. The blood was in the streets, now it's in the water and the sharks are going to start feeding. Even with the sizable float, I think the overall momentum will carry us up, and this summer we will establish some surprising new highs. The environment-marketwise-for eggs has significantly changed. Seems the plan has been followed to a t. With new announcements bound to come as new capital has infused speculation about the future, eggs could start looking like many other internet stocks. They move without relation to common sense or any fundamental valuations. A recent Forbes article pointed out the misery caused by trying to short ubid, ebay, amzn, etc. Regards and good trading (short or long). Bull--still Long long
