On BRKS, I bit this AM -- like old times here on SI. Ankle-deep blood. <g>

Howard,

I get the following stats on BRKS from marketplayer.com
They're usually quite current. I haven't checked their 10Q.
Even with the fire sales today, I wouldn't expect BRKS to sell
below book.

Ian.

Howard, according to my calc all the numbers you quoted are incorrect. The 15.42 book and 8.16 cash are too high as they account for the cash from the 2million share secondary but not the full dilution. Ballpark numbers are 12 book and 7 cash. The wsrn book of 5.70 totally neglects the secondary offering which resulting in 70 million or roughly $7 a share. Just for the record I purchased some BRKS today.
