Peter, I also think your valuation is too cheap. The way I look at it, Elbit Medicial bought Diasonics for around $70 million just a couple of years ago, turned the company around, and is now selling it for $230 million. I think that that indicates that management is at least somewhat competent, and I am willing to bet that they will be able to do something worthwhile with the big cash infusion that they are about to get. Also, Elscint is selling at its low these days and as we have noted in this discussion, at least one institution (Fidelity) has taken a position in Elscint. For these reasons I am definitely holding for awhile longer, as long as things go as expected.

Peter, I think you're overly conservative. Remember Fidelity bought
over 1 million shares and over 7% of the company. They must have paid between 7 and 8 dollars a share. You could never buy Elscint for 48 million dollars nor 112 million.
