This does not bode well for Jack Thompson. Its going to be awful hard for him to convince people hes 'winning' when his opponent appears to be doing just fine despite all his blustering and political manuvering.

Mildly off topic: I recongize the ride in that picture! That's Flight of Fear at either Paramount's King's Island or Parmount's King's Dominion. They replaced the over the shoulder restraints with lapbars a few years ago, though. [/coaster nerd]

Can you even buy one share of stock that trades on the NASDAQ? I'm pretty sure you have to buy in 100 share increments.

Thank god. I'd hate to see the publisher of Civ 4, Oblivion, 2K sports series, Rockstar and a ton of other great titles go down. TakeTwo is our hope of a publishing house that can rival the always uber-evil EA. Gamers should support them.

pandlcg - Sure you can purchase smaller amounts. You might be thinking of option contracts which are usually in increments of 100 shares though...

Flight of Fear was one of the most painful rides ever back when they had those restraints. Ugh. I assume it's on par with having to listen to Jack Thompson.

No you can buy odd lots (less than 100)of any stock regardless of the exchange its trade on. That 100 share increment rule was abolished about 20 years ago with the introduction of on-line trading and the average Joe individual investor getting in on the game

Of course, we should all remember that Take 2's stock *was* at 29 a couple of years ago - meaning over the long term, it's still down more than 50%.

It's also down 30% or so from its 52 week high. So let's not celebrate yet. The trend line remains down.

And what a surprise the stock's back up, or partway there. News has a short lifespan. The next disaster/war/annoyance in the news kills off old news.
And the ppl who are suing Take 2 for Hot Coffee need their brains sorting out. Either that or putting them in the game and have someone steal their car at gunpoint. Or be a tradgedy of a street race or something.
All of it is an adult game dammit!

(to Dr. Pill) Yep, it's great being a coaster nerd... I'm one too! Hehehe...

But yeah, I was wondering what that picture was all about... I guess it has to do with the "roller coaster ride" of the stock market or whatever you'd call it.

@Komamura

I know Flight of Fear was closed for the better part of the season at King's Dominion but I'm certain its been reopened and has been running since late August or so.
