“Corel Corp. stock jumped 19 per cent yesterday on the strength
of positive U.S. news coverage and investor enthusiasm over the
Linux operating system.”
“Trading of the software company’s stock in the U.S. was four
times heavier than usual with an article in the Wall Street Journal
appearing to provide much of the fuel.
“Canadian investors, who had already heard the news in The
Journal article about Corel’s recovery from a near-death experience
fighting Microsoft, belatedly got on the bandwagon with trading
volumes about twice normal levels.”
