It then caught fire and went up to almost $15. That’s when everyone started talking about it, because these little organization that no one heard of was worth more than almost every company you’ve heard of, including Boeing, Exxon, and Costco. In short order, of course, it fell, losing 75% in a matter of a few days.

In all seriousness, though, the company does, in fact, have a website where it makes quite clear what it does. I hope you’re seated and haven’t eaten recently, because here it comes……………
