Patriarch, Thanks for the info.
I, for one, also see Verisign have great long-term potential. Already the dominant player in digital certificate market, Verisign certainly has the early sign of next Microsoft or SAP, in digital certificate space. Just imagine how commonplace online communication has been and will be several years down the road, and how important digital signatures will play in the a secure and safe virtual community. Verisign's position has so far firmly established, with its technology embodied by Microsoft, Netscape, Lucent, HP, and IBM (lotus), etc.
It sometimes make me wonder how far-sighted(or lucky) the early investors in Microsoft are. I bet that in its early days there were concerns about Microsoft's valuation also, but history told us that future potential is the key here. |
