Sleeper Stock. Very profitable company. Selling well below its value. Will eventually come to the attention of fund managers. Look for the stock to double within 24 months.

Just a terrible revenue trend. A little pricey (PEG 1.5) if you even believe the earnings estimates. Total debt ($1.5B) at 3x market cap. Declining cash balance. yada yada yada.

OVERBOUGHT.

I'll take the long side of this one based on a low valuation and despite the poor economy there is a nice upside to this stock. Maintenance will carry the day until used car sales improve.

As long as people need to service and maintain their cars there will strong earnings. More sophisticated cars and extended warrantees will increase traffic to the dealers.
