I just bought into NovAtel on Friday, 300 shares at 8-1/2. I wish that I had started earlier... the price was around 8 earlier in the week. Maybe I'll buy some more. The run-up in the stock happened after a press release about a major order for a Global Positioning system (GPS). biz.yahoo.com Also, here's a Zacks report about NovAtel. This stock carries two strong buys from brokerages/analysts, and the PEG is less than 0.5, which to me is very low for a high tech company with good prospects.
