Get this Off-The- Record report, in which a top analyst names a company that "has done a masterful job in the U.S., but a mediocre job outside the U.S."

The analyst adds: "The company is the strongest player on a worldwide basis, and I expected them to do a much better job internationally. They should take a page out of Yahoo!'s book when it comes to international expansion." To obtain this report, see www.twst.com/info/info217.htm.> An expert highlights Ticketmaster Online-Citysearch (Nasdaq:TMCS), "They have really stuck to their plan. They haven't flopped around going from a B2C to a B2B model. They saw an opportunity existing on the Internet and have been devoted to that goal ever since. They have never missed numbers since I started following the stock. They have a true entrepreneurial team. This is not a high-flying team that is interested only in lining their pockets. They are very focused on building up a long-standing business."
