It may be cheap now, and at $21 recently it was cheap enough that I covered part of my short position.

I have shorted in the minute the first DIGX bids appeared, at 30.5 Within 4 days ICIX lost $9. Well, the market has been weak that time, but 10 Million ICIX short (50% of the float), a disappointing DIGX opening and the known backdoor effect made it a safe short.

Again, they created 2 classes of DIGX stock (like DLIA/TURF) and that makes the valuation even more complicated.

In fact the mother ICIX trades at a discount to DIGX itself but when you look at UBID/MALL last year then you see that discounts may be well over 50%. Liquidity and tax reasons give rise to to that.
