Valuation problems in Sector: Pinnacle Tower IPO pulled.

Pinnacle Tower was scheduled to go public last week. It is a much larger (500+ towers) and better tower company than SCTR in my opinion. Original filing range was $14/$16 share. The range got lowered to $12/$13 share after professional investor interest was not high enough in initial range. Deal could still not get done at lower range. Pinnacle also had a significantly lower valuation than SCTR, and is much larger/better/more capable.

If professional investors did not like pinnacle at valuation lower than SCTR and Pinnacle is a better company implication is interesting for SCTR stock price. Seems like SCTR is held by a lot of individuals who have no concept of valuation or industry fundamentals but continued to hold stock based on hype/chart looked good.

Continue to believ SCTR stock fundamentally very overvalued.

My opinion.
