Wow - you're kidding! A sell rating? That's like strolling around in Hell and suddenly picking up an ice cube. Can't be so!

Next, let's see if anybody listens.

eBay followers, what're your thoughts on VERT (Vertical Net). Has anybody checked on VERT lately? It's looking a lot like eBay before it took off to $200.

Here's what H&Q had to say, in part, about VERT yesterday.

VerticalNet Out of Quiet Per.,Leads B2B Web Play, Init. w/BUY

We are initiating coverage of VerticalNet, the leading operator of targeted portals for business-to-business (B2B) trade communities on the Internet.
In our opinion, VerticalNet represents an exciting business-to-business (B2B) Internet services story--one that combines a huge untapped market opportunity in terms of linking buyers and sellers across a "portfolio" of vertical industries with a visible, recurring revenue services model. Accordingly, we initiate coverage with a BUY rating and believe that VERT should be a core holding for aggressive Internet investors.
