Not since Netscape's IPO have I heard of such investment frenzy among hardcore techies as is in evidence in this Red Hat thread (for "open source" now, "internet" then) . . . and I confess to finding it quite infectious myself; but given that, how is it, then, that IPO Edge (at quote.com -- which I've found referenced in other threads (e.g., Green Mountain, #10)herein -- gives Red Hat's IPO a MINUS 4 rating (one point shy of its worst possible assessment?!) In my response on the Green Mountain thread on this same theme, the recent Motley Fools thrashing of Barrons' "Amazon.Bomb" came to mind: are the IPO Edge folks contrarian indicators (in which case their HIGH ratings should give us pause -- as for GMTN and ENGA)? Is it (as I suspect) not so black and white? Linux tech talk aside, what do INVESTOR types out there feel about such things? How interpret such diverging tea-leaf readings?
