The 30% discount to cash stock I mentioned in previous post is VICL. Stock trading at 4 while cash value at 5.5, no debt. This is not the Graham net-net stock since I don't think there is any profitable company trading below cash value now. It is my slightly modified version of value stock picking method. I recommended ALVR here at 1.86 3 months ago while it was losing money, it is still losing money today and closed at 3.46. My SINA bought at 1.5 a year ago was losing money too, at the first break even quarter, it was above 6, today it is above 16 after 2 profitable Qs. VICL is showing a great chart pattern, broke out to 8-month high Friday with heavy volume. I moved my money from ALVR to it and will continue to buy more on dips, again same "limit order waiting on the lower bound" approach. Take a look and your opinion/comments are welcome. Thanks,
