I agree entirely with these observations, including "I am not really sure why I have it".

Although trading at a goodly discount to Book Value (which is perhaps one reason, and that it is in the financial services sector as another), that P to BV is stagnant, if not fading, and certainly not shining as a lone star beacon of hope from Houston.

(which recalls another observation from Jack Swigert on Appollo XIII that is probably relevant, even though its tense is often misquoted) 

If it is a turnaround situation, it has been suffering more than its fair share of short circuits, DC Main B bus undervolts and HIIGcups while tumbling through the ether.
