MESG IS IN A VERY HOT SECTOR. THERE ARE MANY FACTORS THAT ARE MOVING THIS STOCK NORTH. FIRST, WE HAVE THE SOFTBANK CONNECTION. MESSAGEMEDIA HAS MANY STRONG TIES WITH OTHER SOFTBANK INTERNET COMPANIES. MESG ARE DOING BUSINESS WITH E-TRADE AND GEOCITIES WHICH ARE OWNED BY SOFTBANK. IN ADDITION, THEY DO BUSINESS WITH CMP MEDIA, BARCLAYS AND BERTELSMANN. THERE IS MUCH SPECULATION SENDING THIS STOCK NORTH. SOME PEOPLE ARE SPECULATING THAT THERE MIGHT BE A CONTRACT WITH YAHOO. ONE THING TO POINT OUT IS THAT ANOTHER E-MAIL COMPANY RECENTLY WENT PUBLIC CRITICAL PATH, SOFTBANK HAS OWNERSHIP, AND THAT ANOTHER E-MAIL COMPANY IS PLANNING TO GO PUBLIC VERY SOON ( MAIL.COM) MESSAGEMEDIA HAS A CONTRACT WITH MAIL.COM. ANOTHER FACTOR ABOUT THIS COMPANY IS THAT 24/7 MEDIA ( TFSM ) RECENTLY BOUGHT A E-MAIL COMPANY. THIS MOVE COULD VERY WELL PUT MESSAGEMEDIA IN PLAY WITH THE LIKES OF DOUBLECLICK. MESSAGEMEDIA IS IN THE E-MAIL, DIRECT MARKETING BUSINESS. THEY WOULD MAKE A PERFECT FIT FOR DOUBLECLICK OR 24/7. THIS COMPANY HAS VERY STRONG INTERNET CONNECTIONS..AND A VERY BRIGHT FUTURE.
