Introduction Market Data Compact
This company is in the internet news business and has stumbled recently due to some increasing competition. However, it's a leader in the business, still very profitable, $6 book value, $4 cash and no debt. The stock took a dive in April and is now recovering. Most recently there has been a lot of insider buying up into the $8 mark, so much so that it indicates a turnaround is near. Here at around $9 it looks like great value.

Any comments?
