Q: Hi Peter & Team

I am not well versed in advanced accountng & am an amateur investor. Could you please explain why Sales Force.Com (CRM) and Netsuite (N) on NYSE, stock prices keep rising even though their income statements show several years of Operating Losses. I thought the market punishes non-profitable companies.

Q: I purchased MDA in August ($80x200sh) and it's done some sideways action since then, with the exception of the last few days where it's flirting with the $75 mark. On Friday, I purchased $30,000 of it in my margin account. I know you've rated it as a A- stock, but I'm wondering whether the interest charge and sudden decline is worth the risk.
Could it signify a "leak" like HNL?
I'm wondering if I should just sell before there's any further decline.
Your comments please...

Q: Enablence (ENA.V) restructured last fall; I expected tax-loss sales to follow, but shares still haven't found a floor - at a time when many semiconductor enterprises (well, excluding JDSU) are booming. But Enablence seems adequately funded, and continues to produce new components; ideas?

Q: re. Baylin Technologies (BAY-T)

Do you have and more recent thoughts or insights about this co.? The stock price has settled into a tight range a bit below the IPO. I see that there are two recent analyst reports: Raymond James has an Outperform rating with a price target of $9.00 and Paradigm Capital has a Buy rating with a target of $13.00. How much credence do you give to these reports? Do these firms have some vested interests?

Thanks for your input and advise.
