I ran a few screens on Zack's Sunday night. First, I wanted a PE based on next years earnings below 18. Next a PE on the trailing earnings below 22. Next a long term growth/PE ratio above 1.25. Next at least 75% of the analysts who cover must rate the company a buy or better. Next at least 4 analysts had to have a strong buy. Next the price to book ratio had to be below 3 - about half the S&P 500's p/b ratio.

Out of 5,000 companies in the data base MASK made the list along with about 40 other companies (now with the downgrade less than 4 analysts have a strong buy so it would not make the screen). Don't be spooked by the downgrade. I think it probably reflects on the technology sector moreso than the company; just my guess, have not seen the report.

From a value oriented growth investor, MASK still looks attractive.

Best - Joe
