Currently sports a negative enterprise value and is selling for less than it's historical P/B. {P/S is at an all-time low. Great cash position. AUM grew in the most recent quarter. Currently, there is a distaste for equities and institutional outflows have picked up. I'm predicting that once investors lose their infatuation with bonds, CLMS will benefit. In the short-term, this could get cheaper as much their Q3 outperformance was based on margin expansion (unsustainable) and great investment results (can't depend on that either). Short-term volatility will be tempered by the 2.5% div. yield. They have an able management and investment team. I would like to see management have more skin in the game though.

I like the numbers on this one...Solid earnings, very little debt, consistent dividend payer. I liked it as it dipped from 11 towards 10, bought when it ducked into the $9 range. A bounce back up to $12 seems likely.

I'm interested in this one, not quite ready to commit my own cash as I'd prefer it cheaper, but I think that this is a pretty good price. Any sort of sustained double digit earnings growth from here and this will be a nice investment. Double digit growth seems very reasonable against recent history. Balance sheet is excellent. Calamos clan owns 77% of the company though so they have complete control. This could be a good or bad thing. Hopefully the price can come down to where it is attractive for real money.
