Kris Tuttle's  Instablog

This very microcap name has collapsed but has one interesting thing going for it, over $6/share in cash, fairly high levels of profit and a tiny number of shares outstanding. 

Against all odds these guys exist and have actually put two or three good years together as a company although I thought the days of anyone needing an object database (their core product) were long over.

Insiders may have thought the same and were all very good sellers at prices at $20-30/share.  (The stock now sits at $11.)  The company also has a buy-back program in place and did buy some stock in at higher prices in the past.  This program is still active.

I was told this is a good use of the new instablog service but we'll have to see.

Research 2.0 just did a major upgrade this week to reach what we envisioned back in 2005 but never got around to building thanks to the many distractions that a new business can get you into.

Now we have a range of capabilities that will allow us to focus nearly 100% on research yet still deliver more to our clients thanks to automation and more efficient access to our research library, models, calendars, events and on-demand services.
