would like to return discussion to fundamentals and technicals of company. Re. TA: iqc.com Stock was very overextended on runup and is going through a corrective phase which will last a while. it did not go down as result of posts on this board, it went down because it was overextended. it will either bounce from current levels (red line) or sink into the teens (lower BB). best time to buy internets are when they are at lower BB, best time to sell is during euphoria when they are at upper BB. personally i have been selling this stock esp. after my post of a week ago when i asked if anyone was buying at current levels (then in the 20's) and no one responded affirmatively. now to fundamentals of company - company is certainly at right place at right time but it needs to do more. it has site for aggregating others content but has done little thus far with others content. it has spent very little on attracting eyeballs to its site. so we are left with its own content. would like to get discussion going on the value of its own content. quantitative if possible. the key to investing in any stock is valuation (using surrogates or quantitative measures) and then using volatility as your friend to buy or sell. lets talk about valuation - not broad statements about bcst (which is aggregator with mucho eyeballs) - but specifics on the value of content and the value of vdat's content. Gary ps - personally i would love to see company do a secondary with a real brokerage house, raise big bucks, use money to invest in itself, use money and stock for acquisitions and get analyst coverage.
