SER.. I was never more than mildly bullish on SER but the word in South Florida is that they were expected to beat by a few cents. They are so undervalued compared to their industry that even at $20 a share it would be considered undervalued. They moved the date forward and that is not great. Their fundamentals are below those of their group Their profitability is mixed: those below are less than their competition in hotel industry... Its a value if you want to either make a few bucks on a pop or hold for a year or so and wait for it to double or triple. I liked the increase in volume over 200% more than average so I attributed it (wrongly, I guess) to earnings anticipation. ROA (Return on Assets) : 2.6% ROE (Return on Equity) : 6.4% Profit per Employee : $2,349 Earnings Growth : 23.8% but here they are doing better but not much better. ROS (Return on Sales) : 5.9% Divisional Margins : 16.7% Cash Flow Margins : 14.2% The thing is there EPS growth was estimated to go from about 21% this quarter to over 40% next quarter and their acquisition of Impac.. The chart pattern is not bad with SER trading above its 13 day moving average and MACD is bullish but there is shorting on this company as well. SO I would see what today brings. I don't see any real downside here though..
