This one is worth a good due diligence review and putting on your watch list now that it has 20 years success and 40 - 50% growth. A good diversification consideration toward value/ growth combination.

How is the used car business? Note: In 1978 ASW started with $40,000 and has grown... now over $500,000,000 market cap used car shipping company. Not bad for used cars. Additionally, its 2 new vessels under construction in Malaysia and entry into new Japanese car business could further accelerate its results. |
