Symbol ** TIE *** just look at the insider buying of this stock, When the chairman of the board and family are buying on a regular monthly basis, this indicates that the majority owners are preparing for great profits. What other stock have you seen in the last year that insiders buying has taken place for 6+ months consecutively. I have my TIE -- Mar 09 DITM call option.

Sporthunter,

TIE is interesting.

VALHI INC. (VHI) is a big buyer TIE stock. Recently VHI obtained a license to process radioactive waste and will be buying titanium (I presume from TIE) for processing the waste. Recently there is much talk about bringing on many more nuclear reactors.

Both VHI and TIE might be good plays on that trade and yes VHI also has considerable insider buying though it is very saddled with debt. I might buy some TIE. If I do I will let you know. Thanks for the mention.
