How one company can pull down a
healthy sector

That has happened in the "supply chain" software
sector, creating some good buys for investors

If you missed out when stocks went on sale Wednesday,
don't despair. The markets are likely to sell off again before
the July earnings season, creating more bargains.

But even if the indexes hold up, there are sure to be
sector-specific panics sparked by bad news from one
company in a group. Often this can present a buying
opportunity, as well. In today's jittery markets, a single
company with some problems can pull healthy firms in the
sector down with it.

This occurred late last week in a fast-growing segment of
the software industry known as "supply chain
management," or software that helps manufacturers
manage inventory and distribution better. Analysts say
bargains still exist in the group because investors have
punished perfectly sound companies after one firm in the
pack released bad news.

for the rest...
