Ummm... no idea why you sent me a private message w/ this link (spam I suppose), but I'm not at all interested in those stocks. With the extremely low volume, it's all too obvious what you're planning to do though. Let me make a suggestion: stay the hell away from lame stocks such as those, and go with a stock like SI. 1/4 the P/S of GE, yet much more growth oriented w/ a recent expansion into the U.S. and an amazing control & automation arm. biz.yahoo.com - Zen

ELMS - They announced a 21 for 20 split. For the 40 weeks ended 1/7/02, revenues rose 43% to $26.4 million. Net income rose 6% to $814 thousand.They're about to open another franchise in Nampa, Idaho in April. biz.yahoo.com Fiscal Year Ends Apr 2 and from my calculations they'll have another record year, net income $.52 for the year ended April 2, 2002 CMGI - They're a gorilla(even at these prices). On Tuesday if they do what I think the report will say. Closings and liquidation of 30% their non profitable companies and announce a buy back and we should see a pop to about the $3 range by the end of the week. The best investment for an investment company is it's own company stock. The way the market was in 2001, all companies that had their stock price drop of over 50% should announce buy backs. TOF - Their annual report should be out this month. Looks like a 25% increase in sales from my calculations. We'll see what they show for earnings and net income. They bought back over 252,000 shares(possibly 280,000). BCIS - A lot of block trades in the past few days. They made .53 in 2001 compared to .66 in 2000 biz.yahoo.com " Mr. Sokol added, ``In the Year 2002 we plan to continue pursuing profitable growth opportunities, especially in our Lender/Dealer business. In conjunction with these efforts, we anticipate adding additional staff to further strengthen our capabilities. Following an exceptional year of automobile sales, we expect a reduction in new car sales which may impact our year-over-year growth. Additionally, increased competition from other financial services companies will continue to influence margins, especially as we move beyond our traditional niche to compete with much larger companies.'' " The 10 year chart shows we're starting to up trend towards $6 and from what I've learned over the years, charts are right majority of the times. ISTN - Q1 results should be out this month "As of January 18, 2002, the Company had purchased 731,000 shares of treasury stock at an average price of $5.26 per share. The Board of Directors has approved the purchase of up to 2,000,000 shares of the Company's stock."
