Cedar Fair dramatically overpaid for Paramount's parks. The company's cash flow growth and dividend growth has been challenged since that acquistion.

Additionally the economy is going to heck in a handbasket, with the price of gas and food… More

Too much debt.If FUN reduces it's dividend again it will sink like the first hill on a coaster. I don't see any double diget sales or earnings growth for quite some time. Lack of capital expense money could lead to a deteriorationof the parks.

Income stock with no income----no brainer--

I just wish I had seen this last week! To get Cedar Fair at under 6x earnings, during the Great Recession, is a value play unlike any since the March low!

Cedar fair is changing from an income stock (well, MLP) to a value play. They are not stopping their dividend for the same reason that financials did. They are doing so to pay down debt. Then, they will turn it back on--that is the plan.

This is a fire sale price, well worth the risk. This is easily a 5-bagger value play that will turn into a 10% yielding income play in 5 years. Perfect!
