Michael, are mutual fund operators a beaten-up industry, at least in comparison to other financial stocks? Is BEN the biggest value play among them?

take a look at TROW PFX BEN

BEN is really suffering because of erosion of assets under management. It's trading at 17X estimates for the FY ending in Sept.

I'm not sure what the deal with TROW and PFX might be -- the stock prices pretty much stalled in the last year, despite the bull market.

A few weeks ago would have been a much better time to buy TROW, though.

Here's a nice article explaining that the problem with BEN is that the type of funds offered by Franklin Templeton are out of favor with investors. fnews.yahoo.com

I created a link with Yahoo data & charts for the 50 biggest financial stocks so that you can see how the mutual fund companies have really underperformed some of the other financial stocks:
