VALUE: ONSL has a Value of $3.2 per share. I am not familiar with Vector Vest. But giving ONSL a fair value of $ 3.20/share is beyond me. Thanks for the info. Paul

Think if you applied this to any internet stock, (Yahoo, AOL, Amazon ...) you would see similar results. How did you get that analysis? Email the company or was it an interactive web page? Thanks Chris

Vector vest sucks. Its an interactive web page that just spits out stuff based on sales, earnings, cash etc... Plug in AOL and its even worse. JF

what a crop of crap. we traded in the $60s and are looking for a re-entry. you can't tell me that ONSL couldn't get at leat 1.7 X concurrent sales if the business were sold today. this analyzed underarm deodorant is called an "outlier", i.e., it has no meaning whatsoever relative to ONSL. Vector may work in some instances, but not in this case. if it were to receive valuation relative to other nets it would get at least 4 to 5 X sales

brian, I have used this VectorVest before with other stocks and I will say it is biggest joke I've ever seen. I was looking a STB, Inc.earlier this which was then trading @ 20. Vectorvest stated the Fair value was $44. But had a HOLD rating. Great buy, right? What's the deal? STB announced a earning shortfall and the price crashed to $7. And its still there today.YHOO is currently valued @ $25.70(closed at 244) and another other non-internet stocks POWI valued @ $13.60 closed yesterday 23. They rank the stock as a buy. Value is 13 and it cost 23 and its a buy? My advice is to just ignore any advice of this VectorVest. Stock prices are made by supply and demand plus market conditions and earnings forecasts. I'm holding ONLS regardless of what Vectorvest thinks it worth. Hope this helps Kelvin
