This is a hated stock and you want to own a hated stock when it is not making new lows. Hit a higher low, which is what you want with good volume. Technically, the place to buy would be when it breaks above its June peak of about $10.50.
If you own the stock, you are playing that there is some value in the assets they own. The company is not a going concern. Have a huge deficit hole in their pension plan. Individual parts of the company may be better being sold off.
Has about $4 per share in cash. They are thinking of selling an asset that would raise about another $1 billion, which would add another $2 per share in cash. However, the overall quality of the balance sheet is as bad as he has ever seen it. Speculative.
