Individual Investor Shares Jump After Analyst Says Stock Undervalued Dow Jones Online News, Monday, January 11, 1999 at 18:00 By Brian Steinberg, Staff Reporter NEW YORK -(Dow Jones)- Shares of Individual Investor Group Inc. surged Monday after an analyst at Southeast Research Partners upgraded his rating on the stock. Barry King said he changed his rating to "buy" from "hold," and set a price target of $8 to $10 a share for the New York business publisher. "The stock is undervalued," the Southeast analyst said. King said he believed Individual Investor's print publications are worth $5 to $7 a share, and the company's Internet ventures could generate $2 million in revenue or more within a year's time. Currently, King said, the Internet operations generate about $1 million in revenue. And, the analyst said, an IPO scheduled for Marketwatch.com Inc. later this week could give Individual Investor shares even more value. "That company has a revenue base very similar to Individual Investor," King said. "Its revenues are about five times those Individual Investor has been generating." Should Marketwatch increase in value, King said, that could establish a higher value for Individual Investor. Shares of Individual Investor (INDI) ended the day at $7.125, up $2.25, or 46%, on Nasdaq volume of 858,000, compared with the daily average of just 70,500. Earlier, the shares traded as high as 7 7/16, up 52.5% from Friday's close and near the 52-week high of 7 5/8 set March 12, 1998. - Brian Steinberg; 201-938-5218; brian.steinberg@cor.dowjones.com Copyright (c) 1999 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.

El: Good joke! I would be very interested in getting Harvey's take on today's action, the shopping.com news, and what he sees ahead for CPQ in general. Are you planning on seeing him anytime soon? K

************OT*************** That made me laugh! Here's a bull joke for ya. Just so you know I'm a CPQ bull. NW Three bulls heard via the grapevine that the rancher was going to bring yet another bull onto the ranch, and the prospect raised a discussion among them. First Bull: "Boys, we all know I've been here 5 years. Once we settled our differences, we agreed on which 100 of the cows would be mine. Now, I don't know where this newcomer is going to get HIS cows, but I ain't giving' him any of mine." Second Bull: "That pretty much says it for me, too. I've been here 3 years and have earned my right to the 50 cows we've agreed are mine. I'll fight him, run him off or kill him, but I'm KEEPING' ALL MY COWS." Third Bull: "I've only been here a year, and so far you guys have only let me have 10 cows to "take care of." I may not be as big as you fellows (yet) but I am young and virile, so I simply MUST keep all MY cows." They had just finished their big talk when an eighteen-wheeler pulls up in the middle of the pasture with only ONE ANIMAL IN IT: the biggest Son-of-Another- Bull these guys had ever seen. At 4,700 pounds, each step he took toward the ground strained the steel ramp to the breaking point. First Bull: "Ahem...You know, it's actually been some time since I really felt I was doing all my cows justice, anyway. I think I can spare a few for our new friend." Second Bull: "I'll have plenty of cows to take care of, if I just stay on the opposite end of the pasture from HIM. I'm certainly not looking for an argument." They look over at their young friend, the 3rd bull, and find him pawing the dirt, shaking his horns, and snorting. First Bull: "Son, let me give you some advice real quick. Let him have some of your cows and live to tell about it." Third Bull: "Hell, he can have ALL my cows. I'm just making sure he knows I'm a bull."
