Any thoughts?

In share price, INSP is 10X IUSA. How does that make sense? A partial answer maybe that IUSA has 4x INSP shares, but more likely the problem is that: 1) it wasn't IPOed during an internet hype phase, as was INSP, and therefore didn't catch the wave, and 2) having two classes of shares of actively traded shares is confusing. ABII tried to compensate for the first problem and bring attention to itself by changing its name to IUSA, but that really didn't seem to catch on (or at least offset a series of disappointing quarters which brought the share price down). As for the second, I have no idea if IUSA is concerned about it but if the two share classes could be merged I think trading would benefit.
