The last afterhours trade was 50,000 shares at 57 3/4. I don't think 50K is relatively small! What do you think?

Ibexx, how do you account for a 50,000 share block that traded at 57 3/4?

That's hardly small and it's not all over the place. It's in one spot...57 3/4.

Ibexx,

I generally pay little attention to after-hours trading regardless of the volumes. I've been involved with this before, and it's a really different game. Very limited number of players, and played mostly as a "cat and mouse" kind of a game, or a game of chicken. Who's going to hit whose price? When? How will it move? Will it move enough? Will you get in and out?

Cramer described this better than I ever could, just last week:

Ibexx,>>>Pay no attention to afterhours<<<

I agree.  If it weren't for 5fer's bs blaming of PC demand for his
wretched performance and subsequent mindless reporting by CNBC
(impacted no doubt by 5fer - and especially Joe Kernan's clueless
interview with Drew Peck) 1Q results were very much in line with
Management's guidance. We are on track for ~36% 1999 earnings
growth and 1999 revenue growth of ~15%. Nothing has changed from
realistic expectations.
