I'm sure the BID.COM management team has been legal about "keeping quiet" about the progress of NASDAQ. But, what about the new U.S. market makers. Is it possible they have been talking to clients? Just wondering. The House position / trades list was a lot longer today (i.e. more houses on the list) performing trades.

As usual Frank an informative and insightful post. I never thought about them lettn' her run for the purpose of attracting some attention. From browsing through the posts tonight there are a number of theories as to why the stock made a run today (a) to promote the stock before a Nasdaq listing (b) to raise us up to the National Board level. (c)It may also be possible that this run was just the product of a technical breakout. (d) a sympathy run...LOL (e) a run powered by people realizing we are similar to Eggs. (f) people having the weekend to think about it. (g) the realization of the potential of TV boxes/internet. (h) the Chinese/Microsoft connection Man am I getting tired....I don't care what makes it run as long as it keeps doing it.

Frank IMO those who have been controlling the stock these last days and weeks clearly lost control of it today. I don't think any of them envisioned what happened today although I think they all knew it was possible. I think what we saw today was a short squeeze that turned into a stampede when that wall at 99.9K disappeared, I think interesting the buying from Levesque, who seemed to be fueling the stampede, perhaps their management decided to call the shorts in case the rumors of Nasdaq are based in fact JMHO GJP
