BUY: COINSTAR INC. (CSTR) Start Price: $47.78 Points: +12.99 Created: 06/18/2011 TA wise - seems to be holding at support from April. Stock not expensive on forward pe basis while fundamentals and growth are good and market value is way off prior highs. Simple business a la Peter Lynch, I suspect that anything done, market wise, to the uber extreme isn't likely to end well - reference momentum plays - and this stock is said to be the 2nd heaviest shorted among top 1500 S&P stocks. Fundamentally, other than just market itself, I don't see this as a smart short candidate - we'll see. Comments: 0 | Comment leadon Recs:
