Bruce, I just finished perusing the S-3. Anytime a company is forced to issue equity below book value and drastically below "replacement value" (which I estimate at about $9 and $15 respectively), it means that they are seeing hard times ahead.

I think that you may read between the line that VEBA is getting tougher and will no longer advance just debt. As a matter of fact, If I read correctly part of the additional $200 MM raised in new equity will be used to repay part of the about $800 MM owed to Veba.

Could it be that Veba is losing patience?

As for the stock, if it holds 6, it might be a good reentry point, but if it breaks through that level, we may drift down back to retest the low 3' again. Just from reading the chart, nothing else.
