Have been tossing around Bidwell. Our company here uses them for the retirement benefits.

Good ol' INFS. Has been on my watch list forever.

I think they suffer from, the "not pretty enough syndrome". Their business is boring, the company is boring, the stock is boring, the earnings are boring, and on and on. If they just had some decent growth, all this boring stuff would add up to a nice long term, steady grower. I am afraid it just isn't happening to them, and won't for a very long time. THis is the perfect case for the argument agains the P/E ratio. I remember when a bunch were touting this stock because of the single digit P/E. It can be tough to weed out the true values of a low P/E company.

If you are looking for boring, try POP. At least they have an attractive yield.
