| 915.1 | Whew! 10 bagger in 1 year. | STOWOA::BERSON | | Thu Sep 14 1995 22:39 | 10 |
| Iomega is public and trades on the NASDAQ National Market. The Ticker
Symbol is IOMG.
Is this a deal? Iomega was selling at 2 and 19/64 as a low in the last
52 weeks, but as of last Friday it closed at 26 and 3/8. That's some
run up over 10 years, never mind one. Also, for their previous two
quarters, they are still losing money. I'd buy the ZIP drive, but
leave the stock to someone else to speculate on.

| Well, I guess I blew it on this prediction. Shortly after I wrote this
note Iomega went down below 20. The advise looked good at that time.
Tonight I turned on the Nightly Business Report and Iomega was up six
points to 40 and a fraction.

| Yeah, Bob, thanks to your enthusiastic endorsement I stayed away from this
one...
Of course, only kidding, I shoulda followed my Peter Lynch strategy.
FWIW, I heard that the ZIP drives were going to be offerd with (I think
Micron's) PCs, hence big growth in store. Profits prolly come from the disks
(like razor blades).

| 915.4 | On a roll... up $6+ today. | PCBUOA::RHOWARD | | Tue Apr 23 1996 13:08 | 5 |
| As of a few minutes ago... up $6 1/8 to $47! A friend was telling me
about this one about 3 weeks ago when it was still in upper twenties.
Oh well..... win some (few) loose some (more in my case :^( )

| 915.6 | | WMOIS::JAMBU_S | Skating away on the thin ice of a new day | Tue Apr 23 1996 20:50 | 7 |
| Well finally closed at 51 7/8 up +10 5/8
Heard they announced another split this time 2:1
Another "Ascend Communication story" I guess.

| 915.7 | Still puzzles me why the excitement over stock split such as this one ... | 2155::michaud | Jeff Michaud - ObjectBroker | Wed Apr 24 1996 01:47 | 9 |

NBR also confirms the 2for1 stock split announcement. It's not
like $40/share was high that it needed a split because it was
too pricy (like BRK :-), I find it amazing that the stock is
up ~ 25% in a single trading day on such an annoucement (after
all, a split like this doesn't increase the value of your
investment .... it's not like a stock "dividend")....

Not to mention the zip drives..

| 915.13 | Short coverings drive the stock up | 2155::michaud | Jeff Michaud - ObjectBroker | Tue May 21 1996 13:39 | 11 |

NBR reported last night that this stock has a good sized short
position.
If true, when that happens, the short-sellers go into a buying
frenzy to cover their positions when the stock starts going up.
This starts a vicious cycle, and usually ends in what is called
a "blow out".
Whether this will be a classic example or not only time will tell ...

IOMEGA stock reminds me of a stock a year or so ago called
ANDREA ELECTRONICS that shot up BIGTIME. Only difference is that
IOMEGA has revenues, A.E. did not, the hype with them was they had some
kind of telephone filtering device that everybody thought would be
adopted by AT&T....in never materialed.

| 915.15 | In new laptops, so steady customer base for a while | DABEAN::NEARY | Bob Neary Lexington,Mass | Wed May 22 1996 09:16 | 9 |
| IBM and Compaq(<- I think) are using IOMEGA drives in their new
notebooks. They will soon come out with their new,bigger drives.
This stock has been on the buys lists of lots of Investment advisors
for a year or so. A friend of mine bought it on the recommendation
of the Cabot Market Letter at $8. He sold last week at $48. Since then
it went to $84 and then split and it's back it the $40's again. He's
aggravated he sold "too soon" , but he still made $40,000 so he's not
complaining.
