donkeyman, I get the sense that you're becoming more considerate in your old age. >>But who knows? Anything can happen in this racket and we always have the fear of something striking us from an outside source.

>>>>I would suggest you would copy the graphs of the performances of auction companies that you are familiar with for example, UBID, EGGHEAD, ONSALE, EBAY, etc". What shocked me about the graphs was yes, there was a good jump on the first day, but nothing like the jump 1-3 weeks later. Donkeyman, This is true of most of the inets that ipo. I agree with you and will hold my shares. It will take US investors and fund managers a few days or weeks to become familiar with Bid.com. You can't expect them to roll out the red carpet on day one. It's not possible for analysts, fund managers and large investors to give their full attention to every ipo and new stock that appears on the Nasdaq. Bid.com will have to "WOW" them all before we see a huge pop like UBID, ONSALE and the rest. This, IMO, is something that is very likely to happen to Bid.com given the CEO's aggresive forward progress. All of this IMHO.
