Amen.

These pump and dumpers have their own agenda that's for sure. I am in this stock for the long term as there is the potential for 5,000,000 homes within a year or so. So yes the stock is ahead of itself for the MOMENT.

These P&D artists will have no effect long term - there are much bigger players involved anyway. Sure we will see 5 points at least on Monday, but then we have to shake these fleas.

BTW, goldBUG, why did you start another thread when a perfectly good one already existed?

Federal Court ruling implications: Read on!

The Federal District court decided Friday at 3:30 pm that each municipality in the USA
can decide if AT&T can have exclusive interests there and force people to use only
ATHM (and what municipality is going to allow this?..none)

ISP's (Internet Service Providers) like PRGY stand to gain huge

Why?

Because they want to offer AT&T cable service to their customers.

They want access to it.

Because this court ruling was totally unexpected by AT&T and the ISP's, and the stock
market...the ISP's like PRGY, MSPG, etc should benefit greatly.

Will AT&T appeal this? Well, duh, of course. But just the mere fact that a court ruled
this way is sending shockwaves through the markets.

The only real play here is buying ISP's

PRGY is cheaper than MSPG and AOL, therefore I can buy a lot more of it because it
trades at a lower price to its rivals.

Leverage factor on this type of news is huge.

PRGY can easily go back to $35-$40 in the coming days once people figure all of this
out

Remember, this court decision wasn't known until the final 30 minutes of trading on
Friday.

How many people stuck around for the last 30 min of friday?

How many people knew about this court decision as it came out?

My bet: not many. And they want in badly now.

People will buy ISP's big on Monday and in the coming weeks.

The other play of course is to short ATHM who loses its exclusivity in the market.

Good Trading!

glenn

ATHM number of home passed 65,000,000
The excite/athome mergers is good but you do know that people who use excite doesn't pay a cent just like people using xoom.com
Once excite charge these guys a dollar a month, 80% of their potential customers will be all gone. They are not genuine potential customer. On the other hands, HSAC getting multi million customers base from charter is for real, i'm not even including the potential mergers that lies ahead for HSAC.

65,000,000?????? stop dreaming..That's twice the population of Canada.
You got to be realistic, Paul Allen is realistic, High Speed Access doubling in price is realistic, HSAC trading over $180+ in a full scale internet goldrush is realistic.
