CMVT still a BUY in SMART MONEY magazine, July 1988 issue.
My latest issue arrived in the mail on Monday, June 22nd.
The cover story, "The Best Mid-Year Investments," goes from pages 75 to 84.
Mixed-in on page 81 is, "Love Them or Leave Them, Buy, sell or hold: what to do with '97's Best Investments."
They revisit the 10 stocks they recommended a year and one-half ago. (from their table):
"Comverse Technology (CMVT) price on 11/21/96 $33.13 price on 05/29/98 $49.88 gain 50.6 % forward P/E 27.7 "
"Comverse Technology (Nasdaq: CMVT) In an earnings-driven market, analysts love this maker of telecom networks and messaging systems. Sales in 1997 jumped 42 per cent. The company has also acquired a major competitor, Boston Technology, in a move expected to strengthen its growing network division. BUY "
My Note: Comverse was the *only* BUY on their list, There were 3 SELLs and the rest were rated HOLD. |
