party will recover, would of been a good time to try and short some of the party skin stocks.

Empire is only showing being down 1.93% now. What happened?

Edit: Nevermind, Yahoo was screwed up. Looks like it closed at 121.

If I understand correctly ( I think I do ) it's de facto -33.8%.
They are the ordinary trades.
There's a single trade at -1.93% only, which shows as
"Market Maker to Market Maker including through IDB" instead of an ordinary trade

I know nothing about this stuff but I just looked at the London Exchange site. It says it closed at 121 but when you look at the intraday chart at the very end it shoots up to the 177 that Yahoo says it's at. Can someone explain this?

I can't explain it exactly, but factually it's down -33.8%.. There was one trade probably when the market was closing, at -1.93%, but that trade was outside of the regular market.. I dont't know, market maker made a trade with another one or something like that, and it doesn't really count as a regular trade.

I'm kind of disappointed by this -33%...
Had one of my Bloomberg windows on EP all day... and would have really liked to look at a 80% loss today... o well... tomorrow's another chance...

and btw... WHO THE F.UCK IS BUYING THAT S.HIT???????
