There is nothing wrong witrh the health of ACS. It is the insider trading that is troubling. If the CEO keeps selling at $ 47.00, there is no possibility for the stock to go much higher than that, no matter how good its development staff has always been.
Another problem is the execution of contracts with state agencies. If this problem does not go away, revenues will come down drastically.
Another problem is its inability to keep outstanding executives. With them gone, it is difficult to see how this corporation compete with its peers in the future.

2Q09 4% organic growth, beat earnings estimates, solid bookings, nearly complete with cost structure improvements should add to margins. Positive and growing free cash flow allows for ability to fund capital internally.

Looking for a buyer for this company to come forward soon. Still a great business - outsourcing, no overhead, lots of profit.

ACS is always up and down even when they dow sign and resign fortune 500 companies like Chrystler, Michelin, and Georgia Pacific.

Just finished reading the 2007 10K. The company is poorly capitalized. Cash flow will significantly be hurt by the increasing cost of carrying their debt. Since 2002 it has underperformed the S&P500 sugnificantly. 97% of their buuisness is derived within the U.S. The slow down in the U.S market will significantly effect their buisness. I just dont see how this stock can outperform the S&P.

Company stay around the Mark, but with the market as shakey as it is now, they do a lot of out sourcing should be good for this company

The addition of the new business will strengthen ACS' global information technology outsourcing presence by providing IT operations and capabilities in Germany, the technology services company said in a statement.
The acquisition is expected to close in March. (Reporting by Neetha Mahadevan in Bangalore; Editing by Amitha Rajan)

It will hit $54 for a cool 10% in the near term. Btw, I got my technical reports from PALMA RESEARCH (www.Palmaresearch.com) since it is free for the time being. If someone can tell me whether they are good or whether there is another similar service I would appreciate that information. Thank you so much.
