$NN Waiting a few extra months to get the NPRM doesn't matter compared to the ultimate value of the spectrum. Plus the NN spectrum can/will be used for many additional vital issues like IOT, drones and other AI uses.

$NN Finally, check out the comments recently made by Anterix regarding how they are thinking about the value of their spectrum. The numbers are much higher than I had ever imagined. I am long a bit of $ATEX. NN spectrum is far more powerful than the low band spectrum held by ATEX

@Stl_MAR @Catahoula_Value I think (from past close experience) that the family calling the $TRCY shots is hopelessly inept. Doesn’t mean they won’t sell it at some point but they have turned away some great alternatives.

@Catahoula_Value It feels like $BCOW management would rather continue stealing from the shareholders. $LRBI is performing well on its own and improving so not needed. Sure does spotlight the values though. $MBBC also in $PSBQ backyard where Nick Z is really improving his bank.

I don't know if I fully agree with that. $CBBI trades at 0.4x for two reasons: 1) OTC listing and 2) no buyback. If there was a company sponsored buyback, it would probably trade at 0.6-0.7x and therefore the buybacks would be less accretive. Also if you look at my numbers you'll see that the projected share price in the non-buyback scenario is $16.16 in five years plus $2.50 in dividends vs. $19.10 in the buyback scenario. Pretty close. If you're a short-term holder, you want the buyback to re-rate this to 0.6-0.7x. If you want to long-term compound, it's not clear the buyback is that much better to me.
