Actuate Corp (ACTU)

I think this stock is a good opportunity to buy cheap and turn a profit. The have a sound business model and are profitable. I think when the market turns around this stock will take a huge leap in the positive direction.

rtight products at right time. should grow as market expands and eventually be take over target

Oversold.

beaten down this year and position to move upward. estimated earnings are decent.

Management expects to see increased demand for its offerings in the long term. Financial businesses still need to maintain their standards of operation even through a credit crisis. These mega-corporations won't just drop their immense data-sharing platforms. Actuate is that important.

Three reasons to own ACTU:

1. Crystal clear financials which includes fat profit margins, record revenues and a healthy ROI.

2. Management focuses on shareholder value, as demonstrated through a hefty buyback program.

3. A notable and growing customer base.

Yet more of my micro cap goodness, this stock has very strong quarterly earnings growth, no debt, and good profitability.

Seems well planted in the industry,rubbing shoulders such as MSFT and others. Very volitile,but business seems to be running along fine,and Strong buy out prospect with the price getting in the gutter.

9% insider ownership, 67% institutional, over the last 6 months owners have sold down 8% of their holdings, not the greatest sign in my book. $24M cash on hand and $30M LT debt, a solid and manageable balance sheet. I'm concerned that the corporate governance quotient is so low. Its making money and currently is fairly valued, not an immediate growth play, definately a long term play.

undervalued

I like the below $10 price and its potential for a good return.

Their software evaluates and highlights areas of potential business efficiency enhancements. They've been selected by IBM to participate in their SOA program. Customers of IBM and Actuate can now take advantage of a common approach to Service-Oriented Architecture to rapidly integrate business intelligence and performance management capabilities into applications to support the complete spectrum of business processes. Let's not forget that ACTU is taking their business and putting in the hands of top execs on the road....mobile spreadsheets. I think there's some good upside here with PDA's taking a foothold in mainstream America.

Good stock, banks trying to cut cost will need their software

I like intelligence and need to get software that makes my business smarter. I like the word optimizer kind of reminds me of the orgasmatron 2000. I like the price as well so lets go.

;D

Testing out a portfolio of smallish-cap 5-star stocks found using the CAPS screener. All picks have at least 50 allstars backing them, which should be enough to minimize star rating fluctuations. It's been less than a week, but so far so good!

Close to bottom. No debt.

I feel this firm has tremendous potential going forward. It's sustained sales and EPS growth in conjunction with it's other fundementals show little but upward trending. Even if the bears get there way and we see a recession, it's products are one of the few that firms are encouraged to buy when times are tough as increased effecincy becomes the name of the game.

I dont know if it is going to turn into anything - but it could be a multi bagger if BI really gets some legs

THIS IS ONE TO KEEP YOUR EYE ON
