Love it, Mike! Great find! My take on Barron's irresponsible bit of yellow journalism? Simple: knowing that a stock with a spinoff ahead will often dip before it runs up, some stingy editor at Barron's thought to drive the price lower, to buy and gain more.

On a more cautionary note, however, I should add that, despite my high regard for MRVC, after DD'ing Luminent, I can perceive that the spinoff does carry a few negatives. It should do reasonably well, nonetheless. Zaffire is a real gem, and MRVC's other holdings sound awfully strong, however.

I may have to wait a little for MRVC to crater as a result of Barron Von Springer, but I have no doubt where it ultimately belongs.... in my piggy bank!

Good morning Mike, that Barrons bashing didn't even work. Lot's of shorts need to cover MRVC, IMO.
The Nikkei bounced into the green overnight after starting out going down about 280.
Techs are getting sold in Europe though, so I heard.
But, if oil settles down, we may bounce today.
I'm ready to buy, if things settle down.
Thanks for the article.
