NASDAQ LISTING 19 APRIL = HYPE! My thoughts are echoed in this Raging Bull post... Let me repost my previous message re: REGULATIONS FOR A NASDAQ ANNOUNCEMENT!!! YOU ARE ALL SHOWING HOW IGNORANT YOU ARE ABOUT REGULATIONS CONCERNING ANY ANNOUNCEMENT OF THIS MAGNITUDE FROM A PUBLICLY TRADED COMPANY!!! 1) THERE ARE RULES AND REGULATIONS THAT BIND A PUBLICLY TRADED COMPANY WHEN MAKING ANY ANNOUNCEMENTS OF THIS MAGNITUDE!!!! THEY CANNOT...I REPEAT THEY CANNOT LEAK ANY INFORMATION TO ANYONE ...PERIOD OR ELSE THEY WOULD FACE SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES !!!! 2) NASDAQ REGULATIONS ALSO REQUIRE THAT THIS INFORMATION BE DISTRIBUTED THROUGH THE PROPER CHANNELS AND PROTOCOL...THIS HAS NOT BEEN DONE!!! 3) NASDAQ REGULATIONS ALSO REQUIRE PUBLIC NOTIFICATION WITHIN 48 HOURS OF RECEIVING APPROVAL!!!! NO SUCH NOTIFICATION HAS BEEN GIVEN BY BID.COM!!!! HAS THERE BEEN ANY PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT FROM BID.COM????? (sorry boys... a TV reporter does not qualify!!) I think you got the #### scared out of you when the stock lost 24% of its value in about an hour on Friday...so now you feel you gotta pump it up again..... Best of luck! Tom

Not strange; simple, really. I bet he's Canadian and you're American. @Home Canada is a partnership of Rogers Communications (which has an investment and interest in BID.COM), Shaw Cable and @Home (US)...so Rogers, as part of the deal with BID.COM, agreed to feature BID.COM as the premier @Home site auction company on the CDN site. @Home US wasn't involved, probably hardly heard (yet!) of BID.COM, is focussed on US auction sites. Am I right? WUWT
