Just suppose you received a call from someone who has some experience investing and you are told: 1. Largest on line auctioneer in Canada 2. Not currently on US boards but filed for near future NASD listing 3. Patented "Dutch Auction" which I believe adds a little fun to the auction process sort of like sitting in front of a slot. Keeps buyers tuned in as the bid process winds down. 4. Stock has moved from a base of About ^$6.40 Canadian to as high as !5+ and holding steady around $12.50 within the last 2 weeks 5. Volume is up and growing 6. One institutional investor 7. To be included on the TSE 300/200 indexes. Even given the hype that may be affecting this stock it doesn't concern me because as a newcomer if there's no hype there's no support and no movement. Yes, earnings drives the mkt long term but I think hype plays it's part short term. Look at the effect CNBC and CNNFN plays in moving the market on a daily basis. Anyway, given all the above is this a stock you would choose to ignore? Not me!! Not certain and don't care about the long term at this point. I see its value in the intermediate term. Incidently, I also beleive BII's management has lots of moxy!!
