    I was expecting the NAV on $ACAS to rise from $17.39 to about $17.59, maybe $17.65. Rose to $17.84 and beat earnings. $13.xx is a steal.

    • Ocean Man: One of the best buyback programs in the market, just keeps pushing up the NAV. Buying back 2-3% of the float each quarter.

    • Chris DeMuth Jr.: What a great use of their cash. Buying back float at a discount to NAV is as close to a perpetual motion machine as it gets in the markets.
