Havn't seen the Barron article - gave up my subscription to Barron's because so much of their reporting lacks credance and balance - and would like to know what were the negatives in it. Just took a position last week in VERT. This is a VERY quiet thread. Regards, Ivernia

Labrador: Yes agree that while the Bear-ons (the bear's mouthpiece) article trashed the entire e commerce B2B area, VERT was high on the extensive laundry list of companies that will "need" additional "financing" based on its "burn rate". Therefore a price dip today likely. Barrons has an agenda. That agenda is to drive down the price of stocks. The coincidence is probably SFE's split and sale of stock. But no direct link of course. Note: The Motley Fool issued a report on B2B e commerce which featured VERT. That was last Wed. Those interested may buy the report from the Fool or if don't wish to shell out the bucks to do that, it is possible to be at the edges of it, by participating in relevant threads on the Fool for comments. Best. Chaz
