Clarke Jr., chairman and chief executive officer of TheStreet.com.

undertaken, TheStreet.com has dramatically altered and broadened the
landscape of opportunities for the Company. I look forward to
cohesively and profitably integrating these opportunities as we strive
toward becoming the premier online destination for money."
TheStreet.com's
acquisition of Corsis, a leading provider of custom solutions for
advertisers, enabled it to shift into higher-margin advertising. The
acquisition included the internet property Promotions.com, which is
known for working with some of the largest brands in the world. The
company's subsidiary, StockPickr, also become the first financial
social networking website to surpass 100,000 user-generated portfolios.
These acquisitions, combined with a series of new partnerships,
has propelled TheStreet.com's earnings and future outlook as it
diversifies its revenue base and expands into other markets. All in
all, TheStreet.com is definitely a high-growth stock that is
worth watching!
