ZTECT'S BRIEF ANALYSIS
DBC's prior price valuation was based on its prior "traditional broadcast" business plan, 1998 was a transitional year for DBC. This transition from traditional broadcast medium to an "Internet-Centric" provider of real time financial information adversely effected the balance sheets SHORT term. The investment community didn't take note of DBC's transition until the high profile alliance with CBS. Now that people have noted DBC because of the MarketWatch IPO, investors should also note this following information about their so-called "momentum play". DBC is a little bit more than a "side door". DBS is also the logical partner for CBS with Marketwatch.
DBC- "...utilizing multiple broad bandwidth connections to the Internet, cable, satellite and FM,...delivers real-time stock quotes, financial news and other time-sensitive market data into personal computers, laptop computers,and portable receivers of more than 37,000 active subscribers, 500 institutional clients, and millions of Internet users...
DBC's principal products are marketed under Insite, Signal, BMI, QuoTrek, MarketWatch, Stock Edge, Federal News, DBC Sports and GTIS brand names. The Company serves customers in more than 50 countries, and its products are available wherever the Internet reaches, including Europe, Asia, and the Middle East.
Data Broadcast's Capital Management Sciences division is the LEADING U.S. provider of fixed income data and portfolio analytics to banks, insurance companies, investment managers, brokerage firms and pension funds. CMS' primary products are BondEdge and BondVu...." [ztect's emphasis]
So, even though the "average Joe" retail investor may not know what they bought when they bought DBCC, institutional investors are well aware of what DBC is and does. Thus, that is why there is a 35% institutional position in DBC shares.
Retail investors like the many participating investors on 'SI' threads should take a moment and actually do "due diligence" so they don't give much credence to a lot of the 'BS' spewed on these threads by posters such as "AJ" who have NO clue what they are writing about and are only trying to raise doubt because they have or are going to take a "short position" in the DBC shares.
