You have been bashing DBCC for some time but I am curious what you expect the management to do? They brought the stock up from low single digits with MKTW and they announce new partnerships. You can't blame them for the pre IPO price shooting up to 50. I am long DBCC for quite some time and would love to see it higher too. DBCC has held up very well for the last few days even though MKTW dropped back as low as 75. Must be something going on!?
