He also said "If you were a client of ours, you'd have known in advance what our call was" - This is misleading , as the guy who sits next to me is a yorkton client and they were telling him to buy it and soj all through this - only today did they tell him to sell bids, and then he found out they were actually a net buyer again - very suspect IMO

Trading frenzy surrounds Bid.Com

By LINDA LEATHERDALE, BUSINESS EDITOR
Bid.Com was one hot stock yesterday.

Eyebrows were raised on Bay St. when it was discovered that among those buying up hundreds of thousands of shares yesterday was Yorkton
Securities, Bid.Com's underwriters, who a day earlier downgraded the stock from "speculative buy" to "underperform," suggesting they were
trading for far more than the $2 to $3 he figured they are worth.

By 10:15 a.m., after the 9:30 a.m. opening bell, Yorkton bought a block of 108,700 shares at $9.03 apiece, cashing in on cheaper prices.


The high-flying Internet stock, whose shares were once worth less than $1, then shot up to as high as $32.35, fell $5.10 to $13.90 Wednesday,
after Yorkton analyst, Mark Pavan, released his downgrading report.
