The best Bull and Bear pitches based on recency and number of recommendations.

This company does so much wrong, it's hard to understand how they make profit. They have always had a good history of cash flow and unbelievable pressure on the management team never to be first ones to ruin TFX's history of upward trending.

Start Price: $46.32 TFX Score: +28.04

Now that I've pitched, I've probably jinxed the company. Put my money where my mouth was and luckily (b/c no one can time the market or a stock) it was near the bottom. Diversified company and steadily increasing dividend payer, the kind of companies I like for my IRA.

Start Price: $48.62 TFX Score: -25.60

I'm bearish over the next year due purely to fundamentals. TFX has the P/E of a growth company, but without the growth.

Excellent valuation at this price. Low PE with Good Div. yield. with enough diversification in this bear market. +20% to be expected in 6-12 months...
