>> BTW, two of the largest shareholders in iVillage are Intel and General Electric. At the pre IPO or VC price of how much per share $3, $1, less ? If Intel bought IVIL at $120 ps they'd be declared insane or profligate or worse. --------------------- >> Who exactly is insane? Insane is a pretty serious label... The people who buy into the frenzy of prices escalating just to get in on the hot deal. You're right. Insane is not a good word. Unwise is better. Whatever the word, it is the opposite of rational investing.
