You make a good point, Mike. But that opportunity is more often available with companies in isolated niches than with large groups of companies in an industry that on the surface appear similar and tend to move in groups, both up and down. The P/E of HMAR is unlikely to get to be (your) "half" of a driller's P/E.

Mike, why not pay 9x '99 earnings for NE where your upside is tremendous and the fundimentals look solid for at the very least.... several yrs.

Just a thought.
