Although, a few points: * Industry group (IBD groups) has been losing interest. 3 months ago it was 17/197, last week 70/197 and the group surrently sits at 105/197. MFB is not even in the Top 5 of overall rating in the group. * You you pointed out about AU, but COH also disapointed the street and this is probably the best stock in the group. * MFB posts a C- in ACC/DIS and not only has revenues slowed but last quarter they posted the lowest EPS compared to the last 6 quarters (except March '06). A couple of stocks I have had on my radar as of late have been VCP, RKT, KAI, TIN, and SEO (Paper Group) which have been gaining favor overall and BRLC. BRLC was mentioned in IBD New America and, Eventhough it is an eratic chart, has posted positive EPS the last two qtrs on increasing revenue. Have you taken a look at any of these and if so, what are your thoughts? Have a great weekend! Yes, I agree that technically I see this as being very attractive. Although, a few points:

Aside from fundamentals, the ideal technical accumulation (buy) is right now! Pleadership,

Especially, the revenue decleration considering the high debt level? Chris, the earnings and revenue deceleration does not bother you?
