LPHI seems to keep coming back on the board. I still rate it a pass. Low vol. near 52 week high, no options. One should be searching for a better investment in the current down turn. I heard about this company on TV. They buy your insurance policies from those who need cash fast. Pennies on the dollar. When the owner dies LPHI gets the payout.Great in today's market maybe but what about when things turn around.
