reg - The same analyst on CNBC also thought EBAY would never go anywhere. So who are are you going to trust your analyst or the market? If you are worried bail out now. We don't want anybody to get a nose bleed when this sucker takes off like a rocket next week.

Reg: I saw that analyst. He was full of BS. He admitted to not knowing much about BKS and not following them. AMZN could destroy BKS if BKS was not so strong on the net... and gaining strength every day. I am generally not one of these negative analyst bashers, but in this case, this guy had no business making a negative comment on something that he is not familiar with. Short term, should pop pretty well on IPO, then retrace, and then become a steady money-maker in the future.

I saw that analyst's also and it gave me cause for concern as I have a sizable position in BKS, but he did admit that he didn't know much about their business. Which reassured me that he was talking off the cuff and really should have kept his comments to himself. I am holding my position for at least another week. If I don't see any upward movement by that time I will probably sell.
