Subject: GNET Forget valuation, P/E, PSR, P/book, etc. Here's a post from AOL (bold text is my "responses": Here's an internet stock in the initial stages of taking off. Lots of reasons to buy. Check them out: 1.) Website rated #20 by www.hot100.com[Never heard of them. What's THEIR ticker symbol?] 2.) Similar business to YHOO, LCOS and XCIT, but the market cap is a fraction! [He forgot to mention SEEK.] 3.) Breaking out to new highs. [It's going up because it's going up.] 4.) Very, very small float. 4,500,000 million shares outstanding. Float may be less than half of that.[Sure; the insiders are holding the rest.] 5.) Agressive young company, CEO is 24 and owns 38% of the stock. [Just what the world needs more of: young kids who are extremely wealthy.] 6.) Check out their website www.go2net.com It has games, virtual mall and a stock section. [Been there; done that.] 7.) They got an excellent chess club going.[Chess?] 8.) If GNET gets to be just 1/10th of YHOO market cap, it will be a 4 bagger from here. [Only a 4-bagger?] 9.) Check out the accelerating volume! 10.) Not yet noticed by the investment community at large. i.e. Ground floor opportunity. [If the volume is accelerating, doesn't that mean someone has noticed it? I guess he meant to say it's going up on no news.]
