Dave, With respect to the United story, the last few minutes of NASDAQ had an amazing event relating to Google stock that is not reported in today's NYT and mentioned only in passing in a very brief detail-free summary in the San Fran Chron. GOOG: Stock Quote & Summary Data had this GOODy. Last Sale $320.50 Change Net $60.50 -15.89% Today's High/Low $483.63 / $39 [NOT A TYPO] In a glitch that apparently remains to be explained, the stock price took a horrendous dive in the last few minutes and then recovered. Although some people tried to profit from it, NASDAQ apparently revoked all transactions that occurred during the downward "surge". TheAustralian.news.com.au blames "Erroneous trades" routed to Nasdaq sent Google shares tumbling. Shares rebounded in after-hours trading to $413.06. I look forward to some detailed explanations for RISKS.
