    CLRO has ridiculous pe it looks suspicious

    I like SAVE excellent earnings growth (EPS rating 97), zero debt, good profitability margin, and OMG chart

      Duniyo is right. It has to be SAVE. SAVE is up 150% YTD. It's one of the top stocks in one of the hottest sectors. Has had positive earnings surprises in 8 of last 10 quarters. They have no debt and are buying planes and increasing routes. Sales Q/Q +33% EPS Q/Q +95%. Ridiculously low PEG rate of .74. Next years earnings growth rate expected to be >20%.

      Upon further investigation, DAL is probably a propeller ahead of SAVE but I give the edge to SAVE as it is a younger company 1/7th the size of DAL with explosive growth and a brighter future. Look at longer term charts and remember SAVE is a newby with fresh ideas and fewer old farts at the helm.

        I've liked DAL for a few months and it's still the best company in your top 5. Interestingly, my brother just came to visit me again this past weekend. He flew Delta here and back. The single worst plane ride I have ever been on was a Spirit connecting flight a few years back, so I have a natural hatred for the company. DAL still has an extra 15% left in it's run to feed MrMarket his meats and cheeses.

          What's with all the airline stocks in the top 5? I've still got that bitter airplane-food taste in my mouth from the AFLYY purchase six years ago (or AKH at the time) that's now down 80% for me...

            so, I like CCIX. Nice, safe wire and cabling manufacturer. Lots of profit, going up every year. Can't lose!

              Good point, I remember you mentioning DAL when it was 22s, hope you brought it back then. The only thing I hate about DAL is very large debt.

                Either DLA or SAVE get my vote as those two airlines are in a good position.

                  I got into DAL three months ago and plan to exit my position this week (as I wrote Nov 8th, 26 covered calls). Maybe I am exiting too soon?
                  I like the chart on DAL best too, but if either SAVE or DAL pull back I may take another look at both.

                      Likes DAL-- Barchart

                      Tie--------Piotrosky score, Vectorvest

                      Likes SAVE--Zacks, Vectorgrader

                      I don't have access to IBD

                      If Zacks has inside information about future earnings as they claim, I'd have to pick SAVE.
