I think he was referring to the shares of those who got in on the IPO through Etrade and the likes, 30 days from the IPO they can then flip the shares. alvin

Yes Lock-up is alot longer, the IPO shares are just people that got IPO shares, including me. I will not sell because there were not alot allocated for the IPO, this is more of a scare than anything. If it does go down it will be because of the Market and/or AOL, AMZN earnings. PCLN reports soon too, and they should be better than expected!! All these houses will support PCLN!!! $Mogul

PCLN is my first IPO purchase and I am somewhat new to this. Some posters are mentioning the failure of the major brokerage houses to push the stock. Is it not true, that all this just started?.. and the brokerage houses are just starting to get positioned to push PCLN? IMO, this is the start of a great upward spiral. I know some people with portfolios in excess of $500,000 and do not even know how to turn a computer on. Wait till: (1) the brokerage houses start pushing PCLN and embedding it into their mutual funds,etc.; (2) the folks with the money, but hesitant to the internet, change their tunes...maybe their son or daughter will say "hey mom and dad, did you know...." group comments?
