Is It the Time to Look At a Value Play in the hot optical component stock (TNB)?

Go to their web site www.tnb.com

and find some other information:

Thomas & Betts Corporation
1. Current price 26 and 52 week range 26-53
2. Annual revenue $2.5billion. Market cap $1.5 billion
3. Trailing PE = 8
4. Beta = 0.91
5. In the hottest industry -- optical (connector/coupler/splitter), cable, and electronic/electrical components.
6. Insiders own 28%
7. Pays $1.12 (4.3% yield) annual dividend and has made uninterrupted dividend since 1934.
8. An S&P 500 stock
9. Extremely bearish sentiment but small volume downward

Some known problems with this stock:

Hard to reach PR. Incompetent Management (?)
Web/E-Commerce lingering
Retired CFO
Warning and delayed earning announcement date

Earning report is out Feb. 15.

I am buying at this level.
