<<BA ROBERTSON STEPHENS. Investment banking concern has added a new category to its stock recommendation system... ...The firm now has five categories including "like a rocket" which did not exist before. A spokesperson explained that the new rating is reserved for stocks in industries that lack the traditional valuation drivers like revenues and profits, especially those with limited operating histories, and therefore can only rise in value. This rating, once conferred upon a company's stock, can not be removed because, as the spokesman explained, "these companies represent the future of mankind and the universe as a whole; they are invulnerable because the expectations are so incomprehensible that no shortfall could ever be quantified."
