There will be volatility, however, based on the sloughing off of assets, downside looks minimal, and it seems like at least a $8 target on the basis of the current balance sheet.

big turn around coming

It is so undervalued now because of the market crisis that I believe it's bound to outperform over the next 5 or so years when people "forget" about the mortgage troubles.

This company just hasn't had very much good news these past months. Irwin Financial Corporation announced that for first quarter of 2008, it expects to show a modest loss from operations, which would certainly be an improvement from the last two quarters of 2007. Irwin Financial Corporation announced that its Board of Directors has voted to suspend quarterly dividends on its common, preferred and trust preferred securities. Irwin Financial Corporation announced that for fourth quarter of 2007, it expects to report a loss from operations due to the effects of conditions in the mortgage market and housing markets. I see it taking a change in the economy to see a change in this company.

The stock was recommended a way ago. Now this is the least-recommendable option, my HOLD

I've reviewed the financial statements and believe this company does not deserve the beating it has been taking. I think the value is good, the reorganization is wise, an the potential is there for good margins.

Should beat the market in the long run

at its low good time to get in, company should have a turn around soon. at this point is an acquire and hold
Recs
stock is currently at its low and now seems like a good time to get into this valued stock

Subprime mortgage debacle has shaved this stock in half. Deeply discounted now, pays good dividend, good time to jump in with both feet.

I like this company. I own stock in this company and I am increasing my position by 'doubling down' on my $$ investment. I am buying this position in 1/3's and hope to have a total $10,000 invested.
This is a great stock to buy NOW and wait out the Mortgage/Credit fiasco that is VERY REAL right now. In 2+ years this year will be a hazy memory of times when purchases SHOULD have been made.

beaten down by current anti financial bias
value maps to 21+ so curretn pricing around eleven leaves room for increase

The market said "Boo!" - I said "Yah!" - paranoia and over-excitement is a wonderful thin
