MSCP Comparables: One other came to mind - WebMD. But apparently this has not IPO'd yet. MSFT bought a big chunk of the company and the IPO was scrapped. I don't see where it's come to market yet. Its symbol was to be WBMD.

Trying to check that out led me to one other stock: Medera Life Sciences Corp. (OTCBB:MEDRF), which operates the website www.medbroadcast.com. The stock is Canadian, Vancouver exchange. MEDRF therefore would be an ADR.

The 52-week high is $2.86 and Friday's close was $1.10 on volume of 7,000 shares. This then tell me, 'thin volume, volatile, speculative, dangerous'. Buy at your own risk.

Here's the URL for the quote on SI: siliconinvestor.com

I looked at the Yahoo quote comparisons you showed for the three stocks. One aspect stood out to me: both HLTH and KOOP are down about 75% from their 52-week highs. MSCP is off 'only' 50%. Either MSCP is inherently stronger or it has the potential to shed 50% more from its current price.

How do you spell "R - I - S - K"?
