Just a few thoughts I don't mean to intrude on your worthy thread here, but I have followed it for some time. The future stock price of a company like ONSL is not based on whether the current product offering or earnings/sales/etc. are improving. AMZN won't be profitable for 5 years, if then. YHOO and LCOS and XCIT did not move up in price because there is a lot of money in search engines, per se. EBAY and MALL (UBID's 80% owner) are not rocketing because there is a perceived value in the profitability of online auctions of new or used products. GNET (SI's owner) did not gap and proceed up because the forward earnings statement was just good. It is the business model that funds/traders/investors are buying. The leverageble capability to generate sustainable growth and value in the coming years. It is the potential to be an integral member of the internet community and the creation and growth of a consumer base - regardless of the commdodity. It is the visibility for markets, access to consumers and the draw that is important. As to what it sells now is entirely immaterial. The value is in the company's future in the paradigm of ecommerce. lastshadow
