One to ponder for that dying breed (in the market of ENMD and KTEL), the value investor:
Yellow Corp. (YELL)
Trading at about 10x 98E
.15 PS
approx. 1.1X Book
Comments most appreciated.

Paul: Regarding CHKPF, the following Buffettism from the just-completed annual meeting is very funny and more than a little bit true:

Asked by a shareholder why Berkshire has chosen to forgo any significant investments in the high-tech segment, the 67 year-old investor again explained that he's disinclined to invest in sectors he doesn't feel he can properly evaluate. Later, he cheerfully closed a discussion of how he thought business schools should teach the principles of valuing companies with a telling example: "I would say for a final exam, here's the stock of any Internet company, what's it worth? And anybody who gave an answer, flunks."

(as reported by SmartMoney Interactive)

Kind regards,
Wright

For CHKPF, look at the return on Equity, Revenue increase and Profit margin and you will understand what a profitable business CHKPF is in...High risk? yes...New industry? yes...High reward? I hope so!
