JQP, Re MDR.

Yes many on the thread are aware of the incredible value MDR represents.

1. Priced way below book
2. An utterly absurd PSR; .23? (c'mon, that's ridiculous)
3. Just entering the up phase of it's sub cycle.
4. Over $3/shr in cash.
5. Very reasonable debt level.
6. Contracts coming in, with both Shell and KMG.
7. J Ray alone is worth more than current price.
8. The rest of the businesses are FREE!

As I've stated I think this stock is coiling now. I wonder what the catalyst will be that unlocks the value? B&W settlement? More orders? Analyst upgrade? What?

Care to speculate? How about you Razor?

TIA

PS Something to think about:

If the judge lets B&W live, this could become an incredible China play. Over 95% of China's eletric plants are coal fired and dirty as the Devil Himself. As China makes the very long transition to NG (probably decades in the making)don't you think just a few scrubbers will get ordered. Boy, if I was the Attorney handling B&W, I'd sure throw in the "save 1.3 billion Chinese from lung cancer and emphasema" argument!
