Glenn, VERT's price target was $175 post-split. As you might remember from the guide, price targets that make you look stupid are conveniently forgotten.

I think HB's stock falls along with the I-nets. I guess he'll be taking early retirement soon. ;) Looks like another one of those days in the NAS. <sigh> It seems to be down on support, or maybe through it. At least the end of warning season is approaching. And Oct has much less stock coming out of lockup than Sept did. OTOH Oct is traditionally even worse for stocks than Sept. :((( And this year will probably see quite a bit of tax loss selling from funds. :(( I think/hope/guess that NAS goes up tomorrow, if only because negativity seems to have reached extreme levels.

I am not that fond of HB. Glenn - at some point in the coming decades, historical accounts will be written about the financial fleecing of the public that took place during the late 1990s - such accounts will detail how investment banks and brokerage firms shamelessly promoted the shares of companies they had underwritten or in which they or their clients held large equity positions. Some future impassioned historians might be inclined to describe this period of time as being one of widespread fraud. And I can't help but feel that both Mr. Bs - Blodgett and Bezos, that is - will figure prominently in these accounts. (Legal disclaimer: the above paragraph in no way suggests, implies, insinuates or intimates that either Henry Blodgett or Jeff Bezos has committed acts of Fraud - rather the above paragraph introduces speculation that at some point in the future, there is some potential likelihood that a historian might mention Henry Blodgett or Jeff Bezos when writing about certain fraudulent activities that took place during the 1990s.) -Eric
