See 'Investment Analysis Clubs / Dynamic Value Investing' board and my CAPS profile for further excellent companies selling at a discount to Maxprice with excellent current metrics. CAPS only shows my selections over 100Mill (unfortunately due to restricted lower market cap applied by MF CAPS).

As stated on the 'Investment Analysis Clubs /Dynamic Value Investing' board my aim is to obtain up to 50% returns p.a. as Buffett stated he could obtain (3 times) recently. A very difficult task but you can follow along with my buys and sells on my CAPS page, where I put my money where my mouth is . If I perform well I hope you can benefit. If not , feel free to ignore my comments. CAPS allows each and everyone of us to be clinically judged on our stock picking abilities over the LONG TERM.

Please always do your own due diligence before investing.

I don't quite understand why this stock only has a 2 star rating. It has good earnings, selling at a relatively low P/E, and has shown strong upward momentum recently. This stock is currently trading within 5% of it's 52 week high (in other words, having strong momentum). Zack's gives this stock it's highest rating, a "strong buy" based on recent positive earnings surprises. I have some of my own real money in this stock.
