Actually, radio stocks are down at least 50%, and some are down 90%.
This goes to show that with iPods, cell phones, etc the long-term
outlook for radio is grim.

Stock price often has little to do with a business and more to do with
market trends and hot and cold sectors.

I'm going to retire enjoyable due to buying "value stocks" which are simply
companies throwing off lots of cash and paying dividends which are
undervalued by various metrics. Profitability and dividends tend to pay off
in capital appreciation plus the dividends over time, and the underlying
cash flows insure lower risk. Radio is undervalued, which is why several
companies have gone private... there is enormous value there.

Companies that go private are in a retreat strategy - radio is going
down the toilet, and everyone knows it.

Companies that go private do so because a group of investors with money spot
value in excess of the market capitalization.
