Gotta love those analysts -- downgraded just as the stock hits book value.

I have an acquaintance who seems relatively knowledgeable regarding drillers. He said that, during the '80s down cycle, most drillers bottomed at about 2/3 of their book value. Does anyone have any thoughts about this, or whether this opinion is even correct? I'm looking to load up the truck with ESV. Among other things, I believe that the management is strong and mindful of increasing shareholder value. But am concerned (like everyone else) that we aren't yet at the lows.
