Cherry blossoms fall

Majors panic, seek reserves

Oil, gas forever

speculative but could hit the black gold.

support from $2.63 it will be great stock.

With such a hideous cashflow and only an 8% Gross Margin, profits will be impossible short-term. It will take at least a year for them to iron out an issues, then make tangible changes. After a year, they should see the results of any positive moves.

Look for good things from new mgt. restructuring. Also, will follow index back up next yr.

An Ultralong pick trading under book.

Buy when things are rough, sell when things are great.

I'm really not a huge fan of the buy when everyone else is selling bit, but this would be one case where I do agree. EnGlobal is involved more in the consultation phase of engineering projects for the oil and gas industry predominantly, but it has multiple business segments. ENG has been beaten like a red-headed step-child recently as weakened demand for new business has drained about 1/3rd of their revenues away. Somehow though, margins remain near 10% and ENG more importantly has remained profitable for the full year. They are trading at only 0.85 times book currently and are still generating upwards of 20M in cash flow for the year. Operationally things can't get much worse than they are now, and if this is as bad as it gets, I'd take ENG any day of the week. We're looking at only 8 times forward earnings and if the oil market has even the slightest uptick it will benefit EnGlobal. Also take note that despite a weakened oil market since 2007 ENG has managed to increase shareholder equity year after year. These guys know how to take care of shareholders and are run fairly conservatively. I'm going to place a limit buy order at $2.14 as I look to get in on what I consider will be an easy double.

A very valuable company in the market sectors they provide service to .

minimal debt, selling for 1/3 revenue. Oil and gas will be back.

Oil prices will NOT stay at the current price of today... The cheaper gas is the more we use... We still have many years of drilling left and when it picks up so will this stock. I'll buy some at this price!

Picked this stock up in real at 4.10. Obummers plans will be great for this company.

Energy stocks have taken a beating & should rebound big time.

ENG has been oversold on its surprise earning news. Look for a return to $6 by mid November and $7 in January. This is a good deal if you can catch it around the $5 buy mark.

BUY!

I'm having second thoughts about this one.
