The College Bowl Top 5

MM writes "Each screen will yield about 20 – 25 stocks." In other words, those are separate lists.

Thanks. I didn't realize they were separate lists.

It would be REALLY nice to see Mr. Market add a Great Capital Goods Small cap like acrg.ob to his (our) portfolios!

CME is my choice

[Jaws57]

ACR Group

My pick is ACRG.OB lets make it interesting with a bulletin board pick.

Ever hear of "GLOBAL WARMING", these guys are in the right business.

You want 15%...ARLP is my choice...I stay away from .ob's and .pk's except for quickies. CME...too expensive for my taste...CRDN...not bad...MPX???

[mooddude]

ARLP (main reason: coal is smoking)

Looking at the original screen BXG seems to be a good one, too.

ACRG.OB whats with all of the debt?

Anyone know about their debt ??? I thought this stock looked OK except for their huge debt so I stayed away Thanks

yeah, I was thinking the same. I really like ACRG, and may pick up some if the price is right. But big debts is usually what gets companies relegated to the .ob and .pk lists. It's a problem, but one that could be managed with good earnings (with some potentially lucrative results)... question is, can ACRG do that? More study may tell...

May as well ask $$MM:

When you looked at the latest top 5, were there any specific red flags about ACRG that turned you away from it?

No red flags. CME was better.

[jiesen]

ok, that's what I thought. Thanks!

The direct impact should be on companies such as AH and DHB but since everybody is talking about protection of the troops, would think CRDN should also benefit.

Well, it sure seemed like a good idea at the time. Unfortunatley, both CRDN and DHB are down at the moment. Perhaps the theory will play out later, perhaps not.
