Well, this is strange, the news is out

biz.yahoo.com

Sales were up 13% overall and 7% same store and the company "reitereated" an earning of 19c, a penny above street.

The strange part is why the halting of the stock. In the past year or so, IBI usually made announcement in the morning without halting the stock. Unless this is tied to Limited's spinoff of other subsidaries

best, Bosco

I saw that 44 quote and started scrambling to find the
news. I guess it was good after all. Is anyone worried about the
possible increase in catalog requests with the website? I think the
site will be good overall for sales, but I would think the catalog
costs would have increased. Too bad the site didn't provide
the stock with a surge like K-Tel and Everlast. Granted, this
slower steady move is a lot better for the company, but I
wouldn't have minded making a quick buck.
