I'd like to be. This is stock pumper's fodder. Vert for all I know will be a nice little software company. Along the likes of Viasoft, etc. Maybe after a few years they can attain the level of CACI. Just read the ridiculous 2x2x2x2x prediction which my post responds to. Where is the money to come from for such a trivial software product? What is the total SW/IT inhouse budget for corporate america. This is an expense, a SINK of funds and not a source of wealth of any kind. By propelling stock valuations in this game you think that produces anything useful? It is just a game to make the VC capitalists, those that are already cashed out at much safer levels, wealthy. Now the stock can gyrate to the ephemeral absurd while the daytrader sweatshops play it up.
