IBKR opens @ 50 or so.

Quote from michaelscott:

Well well well. I just looked on my focus list to find Interactive Brokers tanking down in the afterhours session. Some people called me an idiot with many other names when I went ultra-bearish on Interactive Brokers stating it was the next Vonage.

This one I am not wrong on in the least.

Still a ways to go before it reaches Vonage status . I assume you are short large with such a strong opinion, so we can assume large gains if you are right and large losses otherwise.

Looks like some mobsters, aka 'traders' pulled a fast one in jolly Germany and ripped off the MM's, including IB. Assuming this was actually a conspiracy, , they may well get some form of return of capital.

Don't know how 'fair' they are over there regarding manipulation and attempts to gain unfair advantage.
 
Quote from S2007S:

why is there so much hype behind this IPO???



so why the hype, like I mentioned back nearly 2 months ago, look at OXPS and TRAD, both were at or near 52 week lows at the time this went public, now look where it trades, at a 52 week low.

Remember, nothing is ever bought on WallSt. It is sold. Hence, the hype.

Hence. I always wanted to use that. Hence! Harumph.
