<CYOE> Stop getting so nervous all of you - cover if you don't like the action. It seems to me that this kind of volume illustrates something nasty is going on and that's a positive the way I look at it. Shoot me next week if I'm wrong or smack me at the seminar - I'll be the guy who's George Carlin's double. Look where the stock's at now after that run and that volume. Someone ate high priced stock - that's what happened. Hope it wasn't one of you.

DLIA / TURF "Managed?" Speculation only... I'm reflecting on the timespan since Tony's short call on DLIA at 24+ a few weeks ago. (I'm not saying his call had anything to do with this; that's when I started watching carefully) I am no expert in the fine art of managing stocks, but the market performance right up through today seems artificial to me. The precipitous runup to 40, squeezing out the shorts, the dip back to 29, retailing some more DLIA right into the IPO, trading in a channel right through the IPO trade start itself. Meanwhile the TURF take doubles over $80M comes in. Where'd all this money go? Do the fees, overallotment, etc. leave leave enough incentive on the table to try to engineer a smooth takeoff, no goofy drops on open...its all too perfect. Now if you wanted to spin off an IPO, and were able to "manage" it, wouldn't you design the script to play out something like this one, as opposed to the ZD or DBCC debacles? I'm a newbie here, but maybe someone can give a seminar on how this was done.... Maybe this short perspective is turning me into a conspiracy theorist...
