It is where it should be given the fundamentals. You could start to see dividends increases from the smaller company. It is possible that a major takes them out at some point. Not a growth story, however.

A core holding. He owns quite a bit. Metal services. As the economy continues to improve, this will do well. Likes the management. Likes the fundamentals. It is a good hold.

Takeovers are always hard to predict, especially with a large family ownership. It is a tough business with regulation changes and competition. He prefers banks.
