BUY: B&G FOODS INC (BGS) Rating: 4
Start Price: $18.45
Points: +21.24
Created: 04/25/2011
B & G Foods is an manufacturer and seller of shelf stable foods. They market in US, Canada and Puerto Rico. Tis is a stable company with a 9% EPS growth over 5 years. Div. yield of 4.5% and ROE of 19%. There is only one negative I can see and that is the Debt/Cap is about 65% that is high against the industry as a whole.

BUY: ANWORTH MTG ASSET CP (ANH) Rating: 5
Start Price: $7.04
Points: -8.05
Created: 04/25/2011
The company invests mortgage assets, and pass through certificates, mortgage obligations which are backed by collateral and other types of instruments, it also pays a 14% dividend, and its return on equity over 10 years has been 11%. Current Debt/Cap (LT) is around 4%. Their long term picture is a positive one and I purchased the stock myself at 7.04.

BUY: RICHARDSON ELECTRONICS LTD. (RELL) Rating: 5
Start Price: $13.08
Points: -7.81
Created: 03/07/2011
The company has completed the sale of RFPD to Arrow Electronics. It is now sitting on a pile of cash (about $225 million), it has two other divisions that are doing well and they are talking about 5% increase YoY. I believe the company will outperform the market over the next 6 to 9 months.

BUY: CONAGRA FOOD INC (CAG) Rating: 3
Start Price: $21.57
Points: +5.95
Created: 09/21/2010
I like this company, it has a good management, they know what has caused them the problems and are working to solidify their markets. There has been about a 5% inflation is costs and they still have to realize gains of 5% in order to match that inflationary spiral. I find that they have good fundamentals, decent amounts of cash flow and overall I do believe they will bounce back from this blip. Of course the others in this segment are also suffering, but since CAG is so big they get hit harder. … More

This company seems to be coming back into its own. It pays a didivdend and looks to be promising over the next 6 months or so. It has a good debt to equity ratio and has raised its diviidend 4 times in the last 10 years. I believe it is ready to move upward.

Points: +104.87
Created: 10/14/2008
The fundamentals for this company are good, they are working to gain market share worldwide and their chips are as good as or better than Intel. They have improved their ability to deliver the product, and the DOJ has decided that there is to be no action after investigating the ATI. I look for AMD to move upward in the next 6 months to a year.

BUY: GEN MOTORS (GMGMQ)

Another long term stock, presently with a 5.75% yield. I like what GM is doing, first with closing non productive plants, second with the new Chevy SUV Hybrid that should help them to regain momentum. Whatever you believe about all of this, those who put out good vehicles will continue to sell, those that don't, oh well. I think GM is going to move forward instead of backward, it is another long term hold.

Created: 06/03/2008
I know that GE has taken it on the chin lately, but it does pay a decent dividend and the fundamentals are sound for this venerable company. It is a shame that its CEO has generated more adverse publicity than its businesses have generated positive, but in the long term this company will continue to do well. I do own shares in the company myself and will hold them for the long haul.

I like this Electronics components maker, it pays a decent dividend, and has pretty good forward prospects. It is a steady company with a decent rate of return, long term investment.

Points: -65.78

This is a small niche communications company. They pay a good dividend, and Credit Suisse felt good enough to upgrade them to outperform last week. They are a solid company with long term growth prospects. They have decided to change their name though to Frontier Communications.
