I don't agree that Math can work truth be told, if you try to figure out what DBCC's will be "worth" prior to the IPO, it's a fools game. Even if Marketwatch goes to $100, DBCC will only be able to double from it's $10 trading range to $20. You have to look at DBCC's potential a different way. First you discount the drop below $4 back in Oct'98 as simply people back then wanting stocks near their book value, or below an average P/E of 20, so that drop was purley technical against overall market fources. So you need to look at DBCC and say; "hmmm, this stocks all time high was $16 BEFORE this whole Marketwatch IPO issue came to light" so this price is certainly an acceptable entry point going into this new phase of DBCC's stock history, as the price now reflects it's interest in Marketwatch's now quantifiable value of DBCC vested interest. I tend to look at this more like that relationship between LCOS and CMGI, not the UBID/MALL deal everyone keeps quoting. CMGI steadilly tripled while LCOS was trading all over the map. I hope to see the same here.

S.W. Mall isn't a great comparison. There was always doubt about the ability to exercise or not. Its not the same ownership as DBCC. This is much more straight forward ... like CMGI(GCTY), TSQD & WCAP with DRIV & COOL imho. Stephen PS ... Looks like we could finish the day nicely positive !!
