Thanks, and no I got out at 13.1 in AH before earnings were reported. I want to buy some back. Hoping to get some back under 12. Still think it a great longer term play if you are patient. Problem is I am not very patient.

OK, I am tired of being a total bear (right now I have a limit order in the short the QQQs again). But here's a stock I am holding long, which I have held for more than two years already, and which I think I understand pretty well. I have no qualms about recommending it.: MAGS, Magal Security, an Israeli company that has evolved from trying to build airport scanning devices to a much more general business of building security systems. They are rapidly expanding, getting streams of new orders--and as long as there is trouble in the world there will be a demand for their products. The p/E is very low for such rapid growth and they even pay a half-decent dividend.

Aside from the best natural gas royalty trusts, this is the only long holding that I am comfortable pointing out to other people. I think governments will pay for good security systems even in serious recessions.
