Ray, did you or anyone else see the final minutes of trading? I said: <<The trading at the end of the day was funny. It's almost like there was one seller with some size and everyone stepped away to make them be forced to sell down a point. The bid and ask sizes got strange, the spread was all over the place, etc. during this time. And look how the second the last trade went through the bid jumped 5/16. While nothing that happens tomorrow will surprise me, I will be especially unsurprised if we go up $1+ tomorrow.>> Came across this post on the MF tonight which has better detail, though I remember it as a few more thousand shares going through than Kelly does: Subject: Still Watching Date: Thu, Apr 22, 1999 4:48 PM From: Mclainjk Message-id: <19990422194814.03791.00000317@ng30.aol.com> THQ continued to uptrend, and between 2 and 3:55 pm it traded between 24 3/4 and 25 7/16. About 5 minutes till 4, a buy block for 2000 shares went at 25 1/4. Then nothing, then a sell of 400 (I think) at 24 3/4. Then nothing till about 15 seconds before the closing bell, on a down tick 200 shares went at 24!!!! Those mm's took it down a point and a quarter on 600 shares in the last 5 minutes. One quote had the bid at 24 5/16 and the ask at 24 7/16ths. One person had a buy order for 500 at 24 1/4....did the mm's take that order?? no, of course not. The way those idiots play with this stock is sickening. Anyone else notice this? ----------------------------------------------- Comments? Marc
