Doug, this will give you an idea about what Orbit does. As for Hadco, I can tell you one thing. They are advertising like crazy in the Boston Sunday Globe newspaper. That is one way I judge how a company is doing. The more help wanted ads I see for a company the more interested I become. You've probably heard of EMC. I live pretty close to them also. About a year ago there stock wasn't doing anything. Then, all of a sudden help wanted ads started appearing. Business obviously was booming and all of a sudden the stock took off. I try to use a lot of just common sense when I pick a stock. Nothing really technical or fancy. Below is the article on Orbit.
