Are you guys suggesting that for any company, that the current market cap of the stock should equal the revenue or profit of the company? I don't think it works that way. For example, Microsoft has a price to earnings ratio of something like 21, which I believe is considered medium to low. I.e. the price of the stock is many times that of the earnings of the company. For small prospective tech stocks that ratio can be much, much higher.

I feel those points are valid, and need to be explored. Also, what will happen to the # of outstanding shares? More Loans? Dilution of Shares?

How will the company be financed?

Points to Ponder

Let's try another question: If this trading software is so great, why bother to even have a company at all? If I had something that was as good as it is cracked up to be, I would just sit home and make $$millions$$ trading, hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm??
