Hmm im not sure about PAAS not being a takeover target. Its not that big!
Say at $35 an oz in 13, it should make $2 EPS, at a conservative 20 P/E you will get a sp of $40.
Then you have the half a billion in cash,. So in my opinion its a good play.
What I think is most important is that i am almsst certain they will hit their top line and their eps for the 4th quarter, which will be 3 straight quarters of EPS growth.Giving the MGMT a serious shot in the arm of credibility.
Barring a massive collapse in the price of silver (which I cannot see happening, fiscal cliff, china turnaound), we should be looking at $30 a share by Jan 15th 2013
I am closlyl watching the BIG resistance point in silver at $35.We are currently under $2 away from this. if it goes through this resistance point, we are up up and away to $40 and PAAS will go nuts.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
