MO has potential liabilities that dwarf the market cap of LSI. It faces enormous problems worldwide as the liabilities that it faces in the United States spread--and let's not kid ourselves--the governments of various countries love that cash flow as well as any investor. MO of course was, and still may be the highest returning stock of the original nifty fifties, but it's day in the sun has long since passed as evidenced by its less three percent return on its stock price for the last seven years. This company has the potential to be another American Sugar--only this time it will be various attorney generals and foreign governments dividing the pie rather than Castro. And now back to LSI. I agree that over a period of time, LSI is a trading stock rather than a holding stock. But it is also a superior long-term investment relative to the greater universe of stocks.
