That is a shame. Algorithmics would be an excellent choice for my IRA account. Any other longs you like (Sorry for going off topic)?

Thanks,
JEB

Ever look at Broadvision?

It seems they used a barter transaction and booked a gain on it to make analyst estimates for the past quarter. I will see them Monday and put up a full report if it plays out.

If you have any info on them, let me know.

Re: Algorithmics. Stocks to own.

There are some other players out in the ALM and dealing risk management business.

One big player is SunGard Data Systems (NYSE:SDS), sungard.com. See company profiles then.
They run a fledgeling division called SunGard Trading Systems and last year they bought Infinity (http://www.infinity.com/), which offer "Panorama", a market risk application, Infinity7, an integrated datawarehouse for financial institutions, and OPUS, a system I use to structure OTC interest rate contracts.

Reuters has bought "Sailfish", which is more a me-too player. Sailfish was brought to life in US by Jim Davies, but is everthing else but pret-a-porter.

C*ATS (NASDAQ:CATX) (http://www.cats.com/) offers CARMA, an integrated risk management solution.
"CARMA is the leading solution for integrated market, credit and liquidity risk management. In addition to the accuracy and performance
that are CARMA hallmarks, new features broaden the range of risk analyses and selected risk types, ease implementation and expand
flexibility in set-up and reporting. CARMA is used by leading financial institutions to optimize capital usage, manage credit limits at the trading desk or across the enterprise, meet regulatory requirements and support innovative risk management initiatives. Benchmarked at more than 1.7 million valuations per minute, CARMA is the only risk management solution fast enough to provide intraday credit risk management based on full-blown Monte Carlo simulations."

(Taken from a recent CATX press release, when Austrian Kontrollbank licensed Carma as tool to manage their interest risk positions.)
