Brad Barber Quotations

Hockey cards are on fire this year. Yankees' cards are always popular. I don't think I could ever make it if I just did baseball or football.

It is probably going to be spectacular. It will be a good draft. The prices could go to $100 to $200 per pack.

I still had a lot of cards that didn't get ruined. I had a lot of stuff at home. But cards don't take water very well.

Baseball is trying to make it a family activity again.

They have full financial responsibility for four different departments. We're not a generalist. We're very focused on what we do.

A card can go from 50 cents to $10 if the player starts to have a few good games. You have to keep track of their stats. It is kind of like the stock market. If the player has a good performance, the cards will do really well.

In general, activism like this makes good sense as long as it's focused on issues that improve shareholder value.

Institutional activism is a double-edged sword. When prudently applied, activism can provide effective monitoring of publicly traded corporations. When abused, portfolio managers can pursue their personal agendas at the expense of those whose money they manage.
