Bruce, thanks for the compliment. Let me expand to say that on statements of cash flow, I've found that cash from operations usually turns positive before net income does on a turnaround situation and that's usually a good time to get in. Most investors follow net income and that may come six months to a year later to turn around and therefore miss the early and most significant percentage gain on a turnaround.

Likewise, cash from operations usually goes negative before net income does. If you own a stock that starts consuming cash where it used to generate cash from operations, that's a pretty good clue to bail.
