i dont care long run i want to cash in on split

1) one of the best midcap mgts
2) A sterling acquisition record
3) ongoing attention to costs
4) could expand multiple to 20X

In these times of creative accounting, I am a skeptic but the cash flow looks strong, debt seems to be refinanced. I am bullish on the tech sector in general from a technical standpoint. From a fundamental standpoint, the company had good growth rates and a strong ROE. That coupled with cash and a relatively low P/E all things look like a go.

bought overall assets during high priced years. now stuck with debt to pay and not so great economic environment. valuation can be much cheaper than today even if this company survives.
SELL

3 to 5 star stock in one year.

Chart-guesstimate

I see a lot of upside years down the road, when all these acquisitions start favorably affecting this stocks bottom line~!

ametek will grow with the delivery of the 787 dreamliner.

Technology, who would not invest in it?

Testing a portfolio of companies that start with the letter "A".

Cramer Pick 3-6-08

Being picky and choosy for outperforms these days. AME benefitsfrom a large amount of overseas sales, so the weak dollar and sluggish economy wont hurt them much. They also have shown the ability to grow internally and with acquisitions. The recent pulback under $40 may not be the bottom but I like the buying point.

On a strictly technical basis, my magic charts say this will outperform the S&P

very solid company

also, is given very good ratings by stockscouter and thestreet.com

good luck

This is a good company it will have lots of good profits it will improve good.
