G'day Paul (in the spirit of OSSI!)
I was in the restaurant business, and suspect that the LDRY concept is only marginally more difficult to execute than STAR. I like LDRY better, as well: competition (primarily Red Lobster) seems less severe, they have been pummeled by serious bad weather in a lot of their markets.
I like the risk/reward better with LDRY.
Anyone else looked at or followed Wellman (WLM) - price to book is very low, and financials are pretty good. Fortunately, I can say I owned it, and made a profit, at much higher prices (in the 20s). Best could be described as a specialty chemical manufacturer.
Comments?
ps I wished I had looked more closely at Rock of Ages (ROAC) - to put it gently, the leading consolidator in memorials to the death care industry. Not gently - they make tombstones.
