MHCO.... you can never go broke taking a profit. BUT....I think this one has further to go on the upside. Its STILL trading below book value and with a low PE and Katrina was "the perfect storm" for MHCOs future. I see growing sales & earnings for a number of years for MHCO from the rebuilding efforts. And, I cant help but think there might be a time in the next few years where the chairman looks for an exit strategy. (Sale of the company ?) Thats just a guess based on his age and the length of time he has been involved with MHCO. The stocks strength has been encouraging and it doesnt look like a pump & dump or short lived rally to me. I think the future fundamentals can justify a $10 pricetag and if they have a "blowout" quarter,it could trade higher. One of the lessons I have learned over the years is to not "eat like a bird and sh*t like an elephant". So sometimes I let my profits ride even when they are much greater than I originally anticipated. (Except in the case of obvious pump & dumps)
