Appian, what am I missing?

Hi RevTK,

I took a look at it after Motley fool recommended it and decided to pass on it since it’s only a 17% growth company. And since then, it has hit record high everyday and i wonder the same thing.
I saw on marketwatch that there is a rumor there will be an acquisition but it’s ONLY a rumor. If the rumor were to be true, someone must have leaked it from the inside.
