Identix mentioned in Barrons in the Up and Down Wall Street section.
The engaging thing about him for us, though, is his irrepressible enthusiasm. He leapt at the chance to give a couple of examples of stocks he thinks have been undeservedly neglected. (Need we say he owns them?)
Both are small-caps, which wasn't a surprise; both are techs, which was. One is called Fusion Medical Technologies, the other, Identix. Both are traded on the Amex. And both, let us stress, are thin numbers that a little buying can ignite and a little selling can smother.
Identix's stock had a pop recently, but Tony insists there's plenty more where that came from. The company has long been engaged in fingerprint identification technology, and a recent acquisition has fortified its stake in electronic fingerprinting devices.
Tony's all alather about Indentix's present and prospective markets in computers, the Internet and smart cards, among other buzzy areas. Revenues are modest but growing, and it even earns a little money.
Anyone care to guess where this stock will wind up on Monday? |
