Might have some value long-term but there's still a lot of weakness here. Should see some short-term struggles heading into earnings reports for FY 09.

The new CEO did a tremondous job with Schneider Electric. He has vision, buys profitable companies, and will do another tremendous job with Quanex. I am looking forward to good dividends and an increase in the stock price.

I'm forcasting the numbers regarding America's financial situation to be terrible in the summer. Therefore, I see investors itching to short all sectors duing business in the U.S. domestic market, including Quanex. Quanex, along with most other heavily domestic dependent stocks will ride the Dow down into the 11,000's this summer. Time to jump on the bandwagon folks!
