Introduction Market Data Compact
This former market darling has really taken a hit. SCI thought it was worth $45 US a year and a half ago, but now people are selling it at $15 US, a considerable discount to book value (according to Daily Stocks). I have found that the point in time when a stock is most out of favour is often the time to buy in. Have we reached that point with Loewen? All opinions and comments welcome.
