Following up on ASDS

ASDS is trading down a bit -- 0.21 bid and last and 0.25 offer.

If you check out their website ascendantsolutions.com, you see that it has been totally redone and they have contracted Halliburton for shareholder relations (no relation to Dick Cheney's energy company), so you can see that are putting some effort in marketing the stock. If performance holds up, I am thinking the stock could appreciate to book value over time.

I own it and would buy more in the low 0.20's or lower, but think 0.25 or lower is reasonable for a starter position.

I'll repeat risks:

bad long term track record (mitigated somewhat by the fact that they are going to focus on the one thing is working -- expanding their pharmacy business)

good amount of book value is loss carryforwards and a private real estate investment

roach motel -- if things go south, it will be hard to get out at a decent price

I'll see if I can find out anything more about the private real estate investment.
