I'm so happy to see this board this morning with all the new/old names from IHOP. Now we can have a civil discussion. this is going to be a basher free zone. we need to be able to help each other. there are a lot of good plays out here but if you go to IHOP you can't see the forest through the trees of bashers.
I agree the industry average PE is 30. Plus it kinda makes sense to me that Levy will want to keep 51% of the 12.5 bil in reserve to maintain control. I doubt he would increase the O/S more than 6 bil max if it ever came to that. TMUS only has an O/S of 816 mil.
I was also thinking about the employee's buying shares. I mean they would most likely want to offer a 401K or they would buy in the open market. But do you think the company could have bought a billion shares and put it back in the company treasury to be used for employee stock? I still think even with NITE manipulation, the float seems to be around 500 mil.
