Applied Power looks good. Down from 38, with reason
I think, because they bit off big chunks, took on a lot of debt and have to integrate alien cultures. But they looked well managed in the past.

The question is, did success go the CEO's head ? His past experience does not seem to include buying and successfully integrating such large chunks.

The Yahoo! Board of the last 2 months (for what it's worth), which I looked at for a clue on the drop, gives some signs of unrest, possibly greater than there should be.

BTW Carrol the Treas bought a little stock at 30 - 38, so he must have felt good at the time.

APW seems worth thinking about some more .....
