is the share price 4x cash flow or the enterprise value 4x cash flow?

Mike, I'll put HRC on my watch list along with MCK. I keep hemming and hawing. Can't figure out winners from losers in the healthcare provider biz. All look to me like they're in big trouble- debt levels, changing business models. (Maybe that's just the point - it might be good for stock buyers now.) But which one's will recover? - so many variables inpatient/outpatient/geographical/competitive/government changes/aging pop. Some of these firms seems like they can go bust. With method you maybe are, or might be, using on HRC - get out if it drops to new lows-- you risk about 5%. With method I use-- try to hold until recovery - seems like its more risky plus costly in tying up funds.
I'll have to consider it some more.

Paul.

Looks like Health SOuth just got a lot cheaper! What's your strategy here? Looks like they are digging in to whether an uncertain period. It would be interesting to know what is happening to their bond prices , I assume they have them. BTW I happened to see in the WSJ that Fruit of the loom bonds were going for .45 on the dollar.
