I presume you didnât read the thread and just jump in anyhow.
Well, I am trying hard to not introduce or reintroduce old threads when the subject is for the most part related. It is not like no one ever goes off on a tangent in a threadâŚ

This article says Splunk has great products but is lousy investment because of excessive stock-based compensation. Bought only 40 shares, would continue to monitor. So far UBNT is the most investor-friendly.

Is anybody familiar with what Splunk does? Iâve been intrigued by what they actually offer and what market they are in. Do they provide algorithm to analyze the data or just collect the data? I always thought theyâre in the same league as ArcSight. But Splunk stock is certainly doing much better.
Vault QualityOne is simply the first entry point for selling outside life sciences.
Its S-1 filing with the SEC at the time of its IPO in 2013 revealed an agreement with Salesforce that restricted sales of its solutions to drugmakers in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries unless Salesforce granted explicit permission to do otherwise. That agreement expired in September 2015, and in early 2016 the company began dropping hints that it was looking into opportunities in other vertical markets with a small, dedicated team.
Added 25 shares yesterday when Mr Market has stomachache. No matter how you see it, is a little overvalued, however, rather have a foot in than out. Total holding = 100 shares.
Market cap of NTNX is $3.3B, since it is a virtualization software, we can assess its potential size comparing with VMW which is about $38B. So if done well can get 10x 
What is the chance of success competing with big boys like CSCO, DELL/ EMC and HPE?

This is your guess work âMarket cap of NTNX is $3.3B, since it is a virtualization software, we can assess its potential size comparing with VMW which is about $38Bâ

Why NTNX?
[/quote]Top 5 stocks held by Firsthand Technology Value Fund
Firsthand Technology Value Fund, Inc., SVVC, a publicly traded venture capital fund that invests in technology and cleantech companies, disclosed today that its top five holdings as of May 31, 2017, were IntraOp Medical, Pivotal Systems, QMAT, Wrightspeed, and Nutanix.
My theme is big data, cloud computing, IoT, AI, e-commerce and voice which is narrower than SVVCâs. Only NTNX fits my theme. $ allocated is much less than SVVCâs $147 million.
