When I first started looking at BGC on March 18, the price was at $17.57. I don’t know why I didn’t make the CAPS recommendation until April, but we are now hitting my first target price. This is the price where I lock in part of my profits, and let the rest run for a while longer.

As part of my re-evaluation as a target is reached, I re-run my valuations with updated information. When I look at those numbers, I can see that some things improved and others deteriorated. For example, all of the financial safety numbers improved; for the trailing 12 months, the Altman is 5.63, Piotroski is 7, and Sloan is -3.81, all quite good. However, given the country’s financial condition, the valuations all suffered. Now I would be less likely to buy, but I am willing to hold and hope to see my secondary targets reached as I begin to transition from one stock holding to others.

This was one of the easiest stock picks to make this year, I see no reason that they want deep going up and up and up.

Electrical infrastructure stock which should do well with the upgrades to the electrical grid. Low P/E of less than 6, and consistently outperforming the market since November while the rest of the market tumbled.

Obama talking about redoing the electric grid as well as communications. BGC is already cheap as can be at a 4.5 P/E. Just wait for the electric grid to get replaced... this stock is going way up IMO.

P/E ratio 3.90 and this is NOT some high-tech start-up with nothing but losses in their history!

This is one of only 15 US industrial companies on S & P's latest "Global Challengers" which lists mid-sized companies (73 in all) that show the "highest growth characteristics."

See this shoot up in the next 3 years due to older cables being replaced by fiber optic cables (the new standard). Current target $40.

Bought with real money at $18 and am hurting, but I still love the long-term prospects for BGC. Our nation's grid needs a lot of TLC, and they stand to benefit. They have a fantastic world footprint...positions in China, India and Brazil should pay handsomely once the recession slows.

It ain't going out of business and it most likely can't get much cheaper. So what else is left?

4 Star rating w/ P/E Ratio of 8.01 following a significant drop in market the previous day(S&P @ 909). Price at 52 wk low w/ a range of 16.23-83.50. Currently below the SPY by about 35%. Trying to rate at a low point for long term returns. Hold till price reaches about $35.00 and re-evaluate. Jubak top 50 pick. Hopefully the market is reaching a low point soon.
