MIDD is not where I'd like to see it right now. (In other words, it's currently worth a bit less per share than I paid for it back in July). It's no surprise to me that this maker of commercial ovens took a hit in the dough, with its uninvited courts...

Uncertanty about an aquisition drove this stock off of it's highs. That aquisition isn't happening and a smaller one took it's place. Once the numbers for the next couple of quarters come out, this stock should go right back to it's previous highs

They've been trouncing the market for the last few years and the longterm prospects are just as good. With the slow decline in the stock price over the course of 2006, I think now looks like a pretty good time to get in. I expect this stock to be...

Their growth model is to acquire smaller food-prep companies at significant discounts, and then quickly revamp them to meet Middleby's standards of efficiency. I've been watching them for years, and have bought & sold the stock several times, with s...

A great management team, the global trend toward dining out, and the energy efficient ovens lead me to believe this stock will do very well over the next 5-7 years. This stock remains cheap in the high $70's and low $80's......back up the truck!!

Good capital allocators.

Purchased the controlling families stock at below market, using relatively cheap debt. Purchased several companies, integrating them faster than expected in getting them to be acretive to earnings.

Here's why I like this stock:

- Solid, shareholder-friendly management
- Sitting on top of a growing trend of eating out/taking out
- Growing both organically and through smart acquisitions, never biting off more than they can chew
- They just blew ...

The failed acquisition was a blessing in disguise. Too large a bite to swallow easily. This company is a perfect antidote to an overly heavy technology focus. A bit of understanding of heat transfer begets energy efficiency on the consumption side, a...
