They returned money to the owners; hard to argue with that. Then they re-purchased shares; hard to argue with that. Then they said they would look at an acquisition; hard to argue with that.
By the way, it was actually not a 7x -er; it actually appreciated by 28x at one point; but if were you dumb like me and let it all ride then you are now only up 7x ---------- a pitiful return when one could have gotten 4% tax-free. LOL
