Go ahead and move on. You'll be kicking yourself soon IMHO. Don't you see the boxing in is MEANT to discourage small investors like yourself and keep traders from getting in and playing BKS? Only a few months ago BKS was at 47. Now it's at 34 1/2? Makes no sense, does it with all their good news on BNBN? Then again it does make sense if traders have been discouraged from entering. ZD went from 15 to 29 in the weeks prior to the IPO. I know, I made a nice chunk of money on it. DBCC quadrupled, the plummeted. UIHIA went way up, dipped but is now trading much higher than ever. Get your facts straight about backdoor IPO bets. They make the mother company soar not fall. The falls take place after traders think it's topped out then they short. ZD is a different case because it announced a big loss and was downgraded right after the IPO. BKS is a steady healthy company which will not suffer like that, especially with the steady hands the underwriters are putting BNBN (and BKS) into. By the way, large accumulation beginning today by some big buyers. This stock is at its floor now and that has been intentional by those who control the game. Buying opportunity. Watch out above soon.
