Some, actually most, times it doesn't pay to follow the crowd and listen to what the supposed "experts" say.

No offense, Z, but get real... This isn't about being an expert its about simple arithmetic. Unless you think that MKTW is going to end up day one with a market cap of $2B+ then holding DBCC doesn't make any sense. If you think that MKTW is a good opportunity then buy the stock when it trades. At least you actually have that stock and don't have to deal with what DBCC will or won't do about its interest, how much of a discount will take place, etc.

The only logic for keeping this stock now is if you really think the odds are for it to IPO at a huge price. If it doesn't DBCC holders lose out when compared to selling now and buying MKTW when it is trading...
