Have been reading Barron's for better than 25 years and always a good place to pick up some investment ideas. Once in a while even Abelson gets feeling a bit bullish, but its rare.

Tons of market data to sift through to balance out a trading decision and well worth the dough IMHO.

I remember back when this stock was going gangbusters, think fiber optics back in the late 90's. If they would have done a secondary when everyone wanted to own it would have been no problem raising a few billion to sit on the sidelines for supporting the company when the good times stopped rolling. After the 3-1 split in 2000 and the crash of the dotcoms and tech the company had to issue a grundle of stock just to stay afloat like this convertible issue done when the stock was about 1.60/share.

Company has always been on the cheap side with dividends with management overcompensated IMHO for a mediocre stock performance. Lots and lots of options issued.

Doesn't mean that this one looks expensive at this price, but would rather write naked put options to try and glean some premium as compared to owning it outright with the small dividend.

Great glass museum worth a trip if you have some time.

Good Trading
