The others are far more leveraged which explains why NICK has underperformed compared to them.

But, it was a lot less risky stock.

I own it from much lower levels but have sold much of mine.

I figure they will eventually be bought out.

Its hard to pin down actual earnings because of past over-reserves and more recently under-reserves related to past over-reserves. Its clear they make a lot of money but exactly when it was/is made is up for debate.

The the bottom line is its a low risk way to play high risk subprime lending. But how much upside does it really have ? I expect Peter would take his marbles and go home if an offer of $16-17 materialized.

I used to own CRMT but sold out way too soon and never bought CACC because they are the slimiest of the slime.

What state is investigating buy here pay here ?

Its effectively impossible to police because SO many people have bad credit & little money.

So even if they charge a low interest rate, they jack up the price of the car to make up for it.

Is a state going to limit how much a dealer can charge for a used car ?
