There's a big FA question on the Internets - what sort of Price-Sales ratio can they sustain in the future? At this price, DRTN is still running about 40x annualized sales based on the last numbers. Unles you are a gorilla like EXDS, Web Hosting and ASP is not a high barrier to entry business. I just don't see high PS ratios being sustained going forward. It's one of the key factors I look for in shorts right now. I generally don't short many PS plays under 10. Interesting stuff on the long/short blends. Similar to my results.
