I'll take a few shares of Ingersoll-Rand at current price. The company looks okay to me based on p/e and profit margins. IR has improved its bottom line performance in the past couple of years, and this has also been reflected in the price of the stock. IR's been profitable in each of the past ten years, but being a conglomeration of industrial "stuff", it's possible, imo, that if the economy turns down, IR will be strongly adversely affected. OTOH, if IR can maintain it's profit momentum in a good economy, the stock could continue to rise, although I doubt it'll become an investor or IBD favorite. finance.yahoo.com
