I was doing some comparison of WCAP to CMGI.
CMGI trading at 70-80 a share recently.

A few numbers REALLY stood out big.

Return on Assets:
CMGI:10.35%__________WCAP:29.15%
Return on EQUITY
CMGI:28.84%__________WCAP:54.03%!

After Tax Income
CMGI:16.6____________WCAP:8.25
Sales
CMGI:91.5____________WCAP:1 mill
WHICH give a PROFIT Margin of:
CMGI:18% and WCAP a whopping 764%!

CMGI at 13.40 Price to Book which is NOT cheap, while WCAP trades at 1.18 Price to Book which
actually makes it a value play!

P/E also reflects a better value with CMGI at 92.32 P/E and WCAP at a sweet 3.69 P/E!

It appears WCAP is an absolute steal as an Internet play and that the folks at WCAP are doing it right.
This thing is a gem
I got in CMGI a couple years ago for approximately the same price that WCAP trades at now.
I was patient with CMGI and it has given MORE than a 10 times return.
I fully expect WCAP to do the same.
