Jim, Ref RAIL: I did not see any news to account for the move BUT Insiders have been buying shares in 98 . . . Net buying of 832,355.00 shares fro $6.16 to $6.89 per share. Institutions have been net buyers of shares. They own 25.3% and have net purchased 363,000 shares the last qtr. From a fundamental view, I would rate the following areas as favorable: 1) Sales at a slight discount to the Industry Avg Price to Earnings 2) Very favorable Price to Sales Ratio ( .91 ) versus the Industry avg of 1.97 3) Sales below Industry Avg Price to Book and Price to Cash Flow 4) Has a higher Quick and Current Ratio than the industry. 5) Has a higher Return on Equity and Return on Assets than the industry. Negative Points 1) Has higher debt than the Industry. ( But interest rates are declining so this could help earnings going fwd ) EPS for the last 9 months are .36 versus .16 for the same period a year ago. ( Interest Coverage is 2.19 times - a good sign IMO ) ** Company has been increasing its debt via its acquisition of other rail lines. 2) Profit margin below industry avg ( + 6.04 versus + 8.19 ) BUT it is UP from a year ago ( 4.26 ) DC
