Hmmmmm ... well you just might be right, but it's iffy in my mind. The price is very volatile (big swings), which if you're agile you could play to your benefit (I did!). Yesterday (7/24/07) WFR closed at about 58 with a PE of 30.7. The PE is about right (maybe a little high). I'm not sure I'd make a big bet for the long run. There are others with a greater long term potential. Look at the price chart of Tsakos Energy Navigation (TNP), and you'll see a REALLY beautiful growth pattern. Compare it to the WFR chart, and you'll see what I mean.
