Fletch, WDFC, had fantastic results beating by 3 cents. The only negative thing at all is that Zacks is only expecting 7% EPS growth rate next year. Could that be accurate? Did you hear the C.C. and did they discuss forward growth prospects? I know they plan to make key acquisitions, so I like to believe they will grow more than 7% next year over this one.

If that 7% growth number is accurate then the PEG will be a bit high. For a stock in this category you generally want a Price to Earnings to Growth of closer to 1.0. But if the PE is 23 and the expected growth is 7%, then the PEG is over 3.0. That's a bit high.

It may very well qualify as a good, quick trade at least, though, if positive money flow continues to pile in tomorrow.

Thanks, I know I'll be watching.

Fletch, BTW, ESST has a PEG of just over 1.0, which is very good for a tech stock these days.

Expected PE currently is about 22
(divided by)
Expected growth is about 18%

That a PEG just over 1.20
