Dear Sirs I hold a substantial number of shares in THQ inc. symbol THQI. 
On 8january the company through it's CEO  Mr. Brian Farrell had private
telephone conversations with analysts. This led those analysts to alert their 
favored customers.  the result was massive dumping and the share price went from
$24 .375 to under $18 in two days trading.  I talked with the head of investor 
relations At Thqi on 9 January after the market closed.  She advised me that Mr 
Farrell had in fact guided the analysts lower for the next two quarters but that
the company had not public;ly released this information.
I would note that the company had issued a press rlease in early January telling
thepublic how great the year 2000 would be for the company.
UNfortunately I was not privy to this secret selective disclosure I was duped 
into buyingmore stock in THQ  before I lrarned of this selective disclosure.
 I feel I have been defrauded and cheated by the company.  This practice musrt
be made explicitly ILLEGAL  .Please investigate Mr. Brian Farrell immediately 
for this illegal conduct
Sincerely
Mark L. Finlayson
