As to the stock... am I correct in believing that the shares in AHS which AVAL was exchanged for are not trading at this time, and that is the IPO that people were talking about earlier? Tony, Everyone is asleep but I am not, so I am going to answer:-) Correct. AHS (d/b/a StayHealthy.com, Inc) is a private company. The company is lining up it's ducks for an IPO. The last release on April 28 would suggest it will have a fine revenue stream quite soon, and the caliber of management makes me believe that by IPO time, the company will be astonishing its own underwriters, not to mention its investors. I see on your profile you work in the market. Perhaps you are aware of an Internet IPO called Priceline.com (PCLN)? The IPO pricing a month or so ago was $16. At the time they had very little in sales. Stock closed $163 Friday, up 915% since coming on the scene. Think what StayHealthy.com should do if they go into the IPO with handsome revenues already. Few or no Internet stocks have IPO'ed that way that I know of. -Madly PS: Drop me an email at madly@ntrnet.net if you have time. I'd really like to hear how you decided to work in the CME and what it's like.
