Rick Pearson has been all over ONP as long as I can remember, almost to the point of appearing to over-pump it. Looking at the share price now, I guess I wont complain. Always liked this company and am riding free shares now so my DD isnt up to date, I just keep a casual eye on it looking for the growth to slow or some other red flag to finally pull out.

I agree there's a lot of upside but I challenge the figures he gave on the money they make from paper. They sell paper products for double the cost of the raw used product but there are a lot of costs involved in recycling including the process, the machinery. employees, buildings, sales network, transportation, etc.

They are not taking $200/ton of used paper, just turning it around and selling it for $400/ton with no work, no processing, no machines, no chemicals, no employees, no buildings, no overhead, and no expenses.
