CEO and his funny hat?

Why is it that I see the Charlie everywhere with his funny hat? Does he think it's the 1920s or something, "and how do you do, what do you hear, what do you say?"

Numbers are way down

The numbers are not as good as they were a few years ago. Lot of people moving to other startups and also to Cohesity, Rubrik, Arista and PaloAlto. If you have stock you better sell while it is hot!
