Red Hat, Inc. (RHT), Oracle Corporation (ORCL), VMware, Inc. (VMW): Start Investing Now to Reach the Cloud

Don’t shut down your system now!

Looking at Red Hat’s present goodwill and its future plans for the cloud computing venture, the company stands pretty strong against its competitors. It has the potential of becoming a leading cloud computing company within two years of time. Red Hat’s strengths can be seen in various areas like solid financial position, robust revenue growth and increase in net income. Additionally, with the stock price being close to its 52-week low, I would suggest a buy at the current prices to keep our profit servers up an running.
