Gene,
Micro and really, really small "small caps" are my favorites. I =
review daily a list of stocks hitting new highs that day, using =
Marketwatch at the CBS site. My basic parameters are volume of 1000 to =
500,000 shares traded that day, price from $2 to $20, market cap up to =
several hundred million (depending on your preference), and trailing PE =
of 1 to 100.
For CANSLIM criteria, I want RS at least over 80, but preferably =
well over 90. I will accept EPS ranking down to about 50 or so, but only =
if I can vocalize why earnings per share is ready to accelerate. I =
personally prefer funds ownership in the low single digits to zero (I =
like to be smarter and quicker than the average small cap fund manager), =
with management ownership well into double digits. I have had some of my =
better results with management owning over 50% of the issue.
While I like ROE well into double digits, I have had many winners =
where it was in the low single digits when I first bought it.

HI Tom, I thought it might have been an acquisition, but then I =
dug into the
financials and listened to the latest conference call, and the =
bottom line
is it was growth, pure and simple (I personally don't like =
Karaoke, but I
guess there's a whole lot of wannabe Wayne Newtons and Spice =

there)
SMD thinks they can continue to grow in the US (it would be =

by the way, I had some other issues with the Balance Sheet, like =
the huge

"sounds" good to me
