I was looking at it as a potential Corporate target for the new Wilson strategic fund. The size, nearly a bill, the presence of EVT at 38%  and the 'old school' nature of the portfolio gives a few disincentives for anyone to take it over, or break it up.


But the risk of the one large holding renders the more risk averse unlikely to want to own it. Most likely a Falcon; solid, nothing fancy, badly in need of a tune-up and new paint job. And get the sacks of wheat out of the boot.
