Make sure you pull up the charts for those five and look at them. You'll notice that some were clearly stabilized out of the gate. In fact Drakes353 called ICED to my attention at the time but I wasn't able to take advantage of it. Not since BDOG have I seen a chart like that. It's also pretty clear that INMG was also stabilized to a degree although clearly the underwriters didn't have as much "conviction" there. ;-)
