I just got into this one lately after following it
closely for about a month or so. This company became
public sometime around the end of last year, and has
yet to gain wide coverage from analysts. The first
coverage I found that convinced me to
get in was a report issued by Hambrecht and Quist.
Then, yesterday, Robertson Stephens issued a buy
recommendation for GTIS together with a bunch of
other tech stocks including INTC etc and the price
spiked 1 buck to 14 and a change.
Check this out before its too late.
