Priced 1/2 of book, roe 10.5 %, insiders own 11++%, 5.93% dividend, NAV of over $17 a share. Buys small to medium companies in trouble, gee wonder if there any of them out there right now, Not like we in a recession. How about i get 300 or 400 shares… More

With the stock currently trading in the $9 range, it's at a serious discount to the NAV of $16.50 per share at the end of August...

I am not yet convinced that MVC's valuation of its investments in Timerland are appropriate, but I am somewhat reassured after speaking to MVC's CFO.
