Evan: Most banks are safe... In fact, Greenspan engineered the last banking bailout... We can look for him to do the same this time around... With many big name banks down 30 to 40% it looks like a sector ripe for a turnaround aided by FED induced liquidity... Citibank and Chase should do well in the coming months... Jim

Evan.. They the perfect GEMS to look for. <<I know these may not be the "gems" that most people look at, but i'd consider them to be beaten down, just like HRZ and AVI were, and may still be. I haven't looked at all of the companies listed in this industry, but there may be more.>> Don't forget BD.. On the contrary these are the JUST gems we should look at. You won't find them running up before earnings, you won't find them missing their 'whisper' number. CREE, TXCC, GCTI, EFII, USWB were not 'hot' and popular stocks but they jumped 20%-50% in 1-2 days.. I've been looking this weekend at just these sort of stocks.. We are all on the right track.

Tiny Market Gems, boring businesses with market capitalizations 100 to 300 million, solid balance sheets, earnings growth going forward at 30% plus, low P/E's are just the kind that will spurt 10-20% on a good earnings report. The companies might be boring but the money you can make trading them is pretty interesting. RCII up over 10% on Friday with a EPS rank of 96 and a relative strength of 94 is a chain providing televisions and other household appliances to people with poor credit (somewhat like PVN gives credit to people with 'bad' credit) The company has been opening new stores and reporting annual ernings gains of more than 40% (still bored?)... ..orRYL a home builder with 263% increase in earnings last quarter and 121% 2 quarters ago. It has a p/e of 13.. Two more favorites of mine NMGC with 189%increase in EPS last quarter and 520% two quarters ago, and TKLC, both of which I've owned short term and traded a dozen times with a EPS growth last quarter of 217% and 210% 2 quarters ago. Then there's a newcomer called AMCC that's been doing super in the last few weeks. It boasts 130% earnings growth last quarter and 100% 2 quarters ago.. This company has excellent EPS growth going forward as well. It's been on a long uptrend. Now that you are all yawning from these boring companies I'll leave you..
