In fact, it didn't even say that. Stock traders are making lots of money
on the stock market, because the shares are increasing in value. Redhat
made quite a bit of money initially, but that's what IPO's are for. The
tripling in price is, if anything, an indication that Redhat offered their
shares at a very good price. Hardly an indication of ruthlessness.
