Isn't it ironic that those who bought the stock after the price was set at 2 were able to improve on their position.I heard that bondholders afraid of the deal not going thru actually bought up the stock, what a nice surprise.How fitting that someone who scored it admittingly wrong, is the top bull pitch and gets a nice score boost...NICE :-)

Assuming BSC did not write off over $8.43 billion in assets, the market cap of this company is only $2 billion versus $11 billion in book value/equity.If they did not write off that much, they will be back and when it is a healthy stock, it will be worth much more than last years book value.
