Why is NPK sitting on $28 cash? Most are pretty small in the capitalization, and in total very exposed to e-commerce. Ok for a basket, I suppose, but as a small part of a larger portfolio, IMO. The small capitalization limits mutual fund interest, but then that's why they trade at the valuations seen. Insider sales at a couple. Bad sign when the insiders execute options at 3 cents and sell at $4-5 when the company has $3+ cash on hand. (VIAN) I think there are companies with comparable PEs and PBs, yet larger market caps out there. Not trading below cash though.
