Okay this stock has been killed lately I’ve watched it for several months and well in the last two weeks it’s been beaten to death. But now, it’s releasing that it meets it’s analysts estimates which is actually quite amazing at a time like this!… More

Booked small red thumb gain and reset red thumb at a higher price.

Booked small red thumb gain and reset red thumb at a higher price.

Intangibles and goodwill of $220MM on balance sheet (in other words, big time fluff) - seems very, very high. Also still has $100MM in debt with declining revenues / margins. Revenues have fallen ~37% over the past 4 quarters... cost cutting has saved them so far but they will only be able to reduce fixed costs so much (unless they plan to go out of business). Long time before turn around happens here...

I am not sure why fools have this as a 5 star stock.

Considering Book value, earnings, and market cap...this should beat the market in 5 years.

Okay this stock has been killed lately I’ve watched it for several months and well in the last two weeks it’s been beaten to death. But now, it’s releasing that it meets it’s analysts estimates which is actually quite amazing at a time like this! Good pick for me I’m going to go ahead and pat myself on the back when this doubles. Or maybe I’ll start patting now.

BANGALORE, Feb 17 (Reuters) - Staffing company On Assignment Inc is expected to post quarterly results matching analysts' estimates as it benefits from a diversified client base and a small exposure to financial markets
