Paul Senior,

Volkswagen: I know a few years ago the common was replaced on the DAX with the preferred (PINK:VLKPF) (I believe it was around the time of the short squeeze due to Porsche's failed takeover). Have you looked into the preferred at all and do you know if it's callable? How about Porsche's?

Thanks.
Difco

Its "AMCX".....a great asset. Its a spinoff from CVC and should be fairly valued at about USD 40...People have spoken about a possible takeover of this spinoff asset, however even without that, its a good buy. Wait for it to go a bit more lower....Lower it goes, better a buy. However depends on your risk appetite.

I made a mistake by buying FDML at 17.50...but i am not scared - will still end up making money on it
