Re: HMAR

It seems in value investing, one can often ignore bad
business economics if one knows how to identify the going
rate for dogcrap and pay half that. Reducing costs and
paying off debt can make even dogcrap realize an intrinsic value
higher than the market price - granted, this is not a Buffett
approach but a Graham one, and the holding period should
be appropriately shortened.

Hvide appears on its way down. If it retests its last low
at 15, then we're paying 1X book and sales and just about 10 X
earnings for a profitable business, giving us a 12-15% ROIC vs. <10%
if we bought above 20. That looks like a half-price sale to me,
and is attractive to me even if it is dogcrap.
