[Mr. Fister]

Valid points. But in SIAF's case, how do you achieve relevant information in order to judge the mispricing and probability for occurring?
(Everybody can see they have 13 usd or whatever in booked equity - if that market value for the equity why are they in such a mess?)

The whole purpose of value investing is look for the possible mispricing on special situations such as Spinoffs, Partial Spinoffs, Right Offerings, Risk Arbitrage, Mergers and Acquisitions, Bankruptcy, Restructuring and Recapitalization. That's the whole purpose of value investing is to look for these "Special Situations."
