dood, i have NO idea what you just said...

ACF at $4 1/2 is about 1/4 book value. now of course book value is shite, but they can sustain a TON of losses before liquidity becomes an issue at this point, since they somehow conned a bunch of folks to give them money at $7 1/2 a few months ago. Providian when it troughed also traded at about 1/4 book, and it is getting back close to book value today.

now yeah i do have some 'moral' issues with supporting a sub-prime lender, but i'm still huge net short the subprime space so hopefully that keeps me in everybody's good graces.

(btw, when the day comest that COF trades at 1/4 book, it will be a $5 stock. i can't wait.....)

Cheers
