Lately I have been looking at growth stocks trading at lower PE's. In other words low PEG's. That's value, right? Not where I have been lately, but seems there are some opportunities opening there. Of course the problem there is if the anticipated growth falls off. Did get a small amount of AMNF.PK. But I always have concerns about a thinly traded stock with the market maker keeping high spreads (e.g., 7%), but if one likes the potential of microcaps, that problem often comes with the territory. Did get some FKLW.OB on the same theme. I believe the pitch for it that alerted me to the stock was on this board. Got some UTHR after a Wall Street journal article being positive about it alerted it to me. Tried to get some HITK after researching UTHR and finding also in the low PEG range. But I have been too cautious in my bids, so missed buying any so far. At to SVU, I do follow it, and if the price dropped a lot I would probably get in. It may be a value stock, but they do seem to have a lot of problems in execution. It concerns me that they are not transparent on how well the various supermarkets they own are doing, particularly the smaller ones they are opening now. So for now it is intriguing, but I'm holding off.
