Recs
stock has 28% of float shorted right now.
P/E under 3.
Price to book under 0.5
Depressed price and many fears because investors are worried about breaking 90/10 rule (meaning that the institution is making over 90% of their money from the govt. which could result in some fines)
The company owns over 100 separate colleges. They aren't going anywhere.
I see lots of hidden value here. This company is barely trading above the value of its PPE and it seems obvious that there are lots of intangibles involved in education.
