Introduction Market Data Compact

FLA is a "hybrid" company. It owns large tracts of land in Florida and also the Florida East Coast Railway(Jacksonville to Miami line).In the 2/16/98 issue of Barrons, Mike Price stated that FLA is very undervalued. He estimates its value at $200. It closed yesterday at 119 1/8. Feel it's about time FLA has its own forum.

The companys pricipal operation relates to transportation of goods by rail & development, leasing, management & sale of real estate. If you search for the forum "Good Stocks for Portfolio Diversification," you'll find the statistics for eps, pe, etc. In mid-April, FLA released a good earnings report & announced a 4:l stock split(I stated mistakenly in another forum that it was a 5:1 split--sorry.)

Past few days the stock has been gaining steadily. I've searched for news but haven't found any. There has been talk of railroad mergers recently. Could this be the reason for the price run-up? Does anyone have any info on FLA?? Is St. Joe's Corp. in talks to acquire the 45% of FLA they don't own as yet?? Anyone have any answers?
