Perhaps our DMF founders would take this forum/company IPO then use the proceeds to buy Ducati holding and some beers. I value DMF a flat $2 billion. Any potential DMF investors out there?

I had Ducati stock the last time and would buy it again just to be able to go to the shareholder meetings.. However, if it's HK--i'm not flying there...
