My target for TGAL trading shares is $1.80. LF I pass on. Sergio: I am long a few Ks of TGAL, I like their line of business and the fact that the insiders have been recently buying (albeit their holdings remain small.<g>)Also like the low Debt/Eq. ratio.Sales have increased in the last Q and loss was smaller, but still higher than I would like to see in view of their small cash on hand.<g> The down-trend since the Dec.14 H at $1.96 remains intact. (attempted rallies on Dec.16 & Dec.30 failed.<g>)My average cost is below $1.50 and there seems to be good support at the $1.25 to $1.30 level. bigcharts.marketwatch.com I don't like the way the market started the new year and in 2 weeks my paper loss has been larger than my paper gains for the whole month in December.<g> That's why I would be glad to sell some TGAL at $1.60 and I hope the stock doesn't get to test its October-November lows. As far as LF, I am trying to buy some below $12, but I haven't check with Ken about its Oct.19 down-gap.Perhaps I should do that before I buy some.<g>They keep having some good news and the "education" field is a good one.<g> biz.yahoo.com As far as their pen goes, I agree that you and I probably will not buy one, but as a "toy" it probably has some possibilities. Every time I visit my grandchildren and look in some closets,I am surprised on how much money their parents spend on "toys and children books"<g>.(I know that half the amount spent could easily cover my expenses for one year.<g.) yahoo.reuters.com It seems before the Holidays in the Fall the stock may be able to get back to the $20 level. Will see if the market cooperates.<g> marketwatch.com At any rate, LF doesn't have any significant LTD, they reportedly have $1.80 in cash/share, $40M & $21M in cash/flow and FCF, respectively. I also like that the insiders hold more than 30% and the short position is around 18% of the float with a short ratio around 10.<g> But as I said, I don't have Ken's inside on those big down-gaps.<g> bigcharts.marketwatch.com bigcharts.marketwatch.com RAGL Bernard

Sergio: LF Is trying to close its Oct.19 downgap (It already closed the Feb.16 <g>) And that is in spite of the fact that the March Q loss at $0.32/shr was higher than the $0.20/shr in 2004. But for 2005 the EE are around $0.13/shr on the black column vs. a loss of $0.11/shr in 2004 And for 2006 the EE are around $0.40/shr. LF has more than $3 in cash/shr and no significant LTD. Now if we can get the insiders to stop selling their limited shares, we may see some of the shorts to start covering some of their sizable position.<g> bigcharts.marketwatch.com I have not been following TGAL closely, but last time I looked, it was still a little below your "target", albeit it got as high as 1.69 on March 29. (I guess we can't win them all.<g>) bigcharts.marketwatch.com RAGL Bernard
