You all have made me rethink my decision. I'll cancel my trailing stop and let it ride

Billie received a Teaser Ad touting a "Bargain Priced" $1,000 Stock Service soon to increase to $4500 per year . They apparently look to find stocks that are in line to receive huge inflows of institutional money. ONLY "1" Hot Stock per month or less is what they will give you.
Clues are scarce BUT apparently the stock in question sells for less than $4 , and has a market cap of $180 Million. LBMH and FSCL seem like good possibilities.
NO WAY, NO HOW WILL I SPEND 1 THIN DIME SUBSCRIBING TO THIS SERVICE!

bigtruck, If she can crack 3.90 we're off to the races. http://bigcharts.marketwatch.com/qui...w=True&time=18

I agree Billy -- looks like she wants to hit that mark soon! Glad I removed my trailing stop, it would have triggered Friday!

If you want a good laugh, go check out the Yahoo Message Boards for LBMH

bigtruck, The bashers must be shorting although short float is <6%. LBMH is a legit company, paying dividend, proven CEO, national advert. campaign. I'd be more worried about selling before something big happens. Might trim to take some profits. Not really worried. Just would like to find more low priced high quality stocks.

[bigtruck]

Completely agree. I peek around Yahoo Message boards sometimes to get a different perspective. I'm going to sit tight on this one and hope for the best

Got it at 2.50. Didn't sell earlier for the big profits but I think it will be making another run. Louetta has given LBMH her "wild assed" stamp of approval.

Looks like a better bet than MCIG and the National Bank of Greece.

so far, so good...

[billyjoe]

Got order in for more at 2.22. Can't find any red flags. Still paying dividend. Sales and earnings remain strong. Customer base expanding with monthly shipments.

All I can figure, and it's a wild-assed guess, is that somebody thinks something is up with reduced payments from medicare.

[jiesen]

Guess that is conceivable.

Suppose interest rates were to go back up to more normal levels of 3-4% (from <1% now). Would the treasury be able to pay the increase from the current $400B+ interest payment to $1-2T per year, and still afford the current medicare/SS payments as well? Something will have to give...

LBMH, I'm tempted to buy again at 2.07. Short float has dropped to 1.75% and dividend is about 6%, payed regularly. Low P/E, excellent ROA, ROE, ROI, no debt. Gabelli Funds LLC has added to its position as posted Aug.3rd. Long term sure looks good. Might make my 1 year old grandson very well off.

10-Q has been posted to the SEC site. On a year-to-year basis net sales for 3 months up 9.6%, for nine months up 9.9%. Good top line growth, methinks. Net income is down due to a (presumably) one-time litigation settlement so EPS is down to .03 per share for the quarter vs. .04 last year, nine months EPS the same at .11 per share. .03 per share covers the dividend (might not if you go another decimal place).

I conclude we might head South Tuesday morning due to a decrease in EPS. But I like the top line growth and the fact that they can (essentially) cover the dividend. I would not sell but I plan to keep this awhile anyway. Certainly want to hear what others think.
