Dividend yield is very good, steady solid growth in past years, should not be effected as much by the recession and should recover very well.
Recs
Has great prospects to further research.

In daily and weekly uptrend, trading above 9 and 18 day average. If all time high of 74.51 is broken, LDR should trade at 82.80 by March 2 for a 14% gain. Buy at 72.50 with a stop at 69.8

Solid company

- Strong financials - no debt.
- Solid prospects which may improve if more investment is put into nuclear power generation given soaring oil prices.

Bullish signal ;)

This pick is finally on the positive side for me. Like has been stated by others, this one is not sexy, but will stay solid. Great div makes this a great play in a tought market (like the current one).

Except for government installations, this company has the lock on radiation dosimetry (radiation exposure per person) in the US, Japan, Brazil. It has the low cost proprietary methodology. Every person who works in a medical facility who receives any radiation exposure will be seen wearing a Landauer badge. It signs new contracts yearly; the quarter to quarter earnings are pretty much level over the year. It has little debt. Its sideline is its radon measuring kits in home sales. It has competitors here and we know where home sales are now, but this represents a piddling part of LDR's income stream. This is a steady eddie dividend stock. Some recent shortfalls in quarterly earnings were attributed to overhauling internal information systems, which should enhance margins going forward. This is a BORING stock. Nonetheless, I've owned it for 15 years and have been unable to sell it, when I look at its year to year performance vs other more exciting stocks in my portfolio. LDR increases its dividend yearly, like clockwork. Until doctors quilt ordering CT scans and xrays or until a new, cheaper, superior technology hits the marketplace, this company will thrive. Heck, buy this one for your mother-in-law.

Good dividend low debt. They could be a little high right now but longer term looks attractive.

But I still like it. I own it for its dividend not for gwoth. I am convinced that it is a solid field to invest in but it is not going to makeyou rich.
Recs
This is a speculative play for the long term. I think that its exposure the field of radiation monitoring will give it ample room to grow with possiblities in the medical, security and energy fields. All of these sectors will be strong in the upcoming future.
