    I went long. Popped pretty nicely yesterday too...

    Celadon has been flirting with bankruptcy since last summer, but I reckon if they survived this long (and if banks are still willing to lend them money) it probably won't go under considering how good the market has been.

    But we'll see - they haven't filed financials for over 6 months so you're kind of blind aside from knowing they sold Quality leasing, the cdl mills, & a flatbed division...

    But if they survive, they've got over 2,000 trucks which should easily be profiting $200/week in this market (ignoring the fact they'll have to write down a massive 1-time loss from Quality leasing). That's ~$20 million profit against ~28 million shares, or ~ $0.75/share before you even count the brokerage part of Celadon's business.

    So that should set a price floor around $7.50 with $15+ not being crazy -- again, if they survive...

    Wild-### guess:
    20% chance they go bankrupt: -$4
    20% they are taken private for $6: +$2
    60% chance they survive and trade for $10+: +$6
    .2×(-4) + .2×2 + .6×6 = +$3.2

    $3.20 expected profit / $4 investment = 80% expected ROI

    And with that, I'll leave you with a quote from Warren Buffett: "Beware of geeks bearing formulas."

    What’s wrong with your AC? No air flow? Something else?
