RE:RE:Free Fall

RE:RE:Free Fall
Yep, I'm in Sarge's camp.  As bad as the share price is the central problem isn't really debt, it's the rise in interest rates, which as has been discussed here - there is a recovery path for that, it just takes a while (and eventually rates will retreat also).

I think talk of a sale / takeover is ludicrous.  Whether or not they can the KY deal remains to be seen.  I'm not a current shareholder so I could care less, but I will become one if my target price gets hit.  Liberty has to grow - they have to buy more distribution companies - so if it's not going to be KY, it's going to be something else.

If I buy, I'll be fine with up to a 50% dividend cut knowing it'll likely grow back fairly quickly and there should also be some nice capital appreciation on the side. 

I remember in 2015 when they fumbled 2014 year end financials and the stock dropped 20%.  It took almost a year to fully recover but after that it went on a five year tear.  I suspect history will repeat itself

Secondly, AQN still has some excellent assets and is in a way better postion than what ALA and IPL were. Ideally, they can get out of this KPC deal and the stock will rebound immediately and they won't have to cut the divy. If they can't, then the divy is going to be cut in half and it will be a slow process getting things straightened out. Hopefully Banskota will be punted along the way.

Anyway, I think it's pretty much bottomed and even if it hasn't. I'm very confident AQN will have a higher share price by the end of 2023 than it has now.
