massive over reaction

SAV seemed to be un-ruly bashed yesterday.

I'm conservative on these sell downs. AFG, BNB....yeah...billions of debt will push into administration.

42 million though...part of which is long term?

I am wondering if SAV was helping a new major entering by a mjor exiting.

62% down in a day? The Savcor business seems strong and 42 million...we could almost raise that ourselves.

I'll lay down a bet that this will correct back up in the short term. I got myself 100,000 at 15 thinking that was the bottom...no after more research on the numbers am kicking myself for not putting in more. Hopefully today we'll see some more selling and we can keep getting SAV at these prices as it may just join the ranks of the others that got bashed then provided in excess of 300% returns short term.

This whole sub-prime like all other crisis's seems to be an avenue to destroy wealth and also create wealth for those laying it on the line and reading between the lines.

Even the Ferret...we all know him tagged this one in April this year. Its definately one to watch.

Do you research....dot you I's and cross you T's.....ring the company and ask your questions but I do thinnk this one may be one of those where a position now might do well after the dust settles.
