Maurice....I too have been a long time holder....I can even admit selling some of this at $13.50 and making money. What an idiot! It's going to trade on future expectations....look at Yahoo! as an example, or Excite, or Intuit. What moved us off $10 and into the teens? Future expectations of a market for E-Bill? What got us from the teens to the twenties? Future expectations of increased market share due to the Integrion deal? Why do you think there are 6 or 7 Strong Buys on this even though it often trades at 100x next years revenues? Future expectations? You can't IMO quantify something that hasn't happened or been proven to work in the market. You can only go on what you expect to happen without knowing the outcome. Heck I thought Excite would trade in the $50's 3 to 5 years out, and Intuit would top out at $40. I don't think you want to know my personal opinion on this one....cause I've been off on all the timeframes and targets. The only thing I can tell you is I have future expectations....and this isn't a $20 Stock IHMO. Besides I think Bob answered the numbers stuff.....
