Good news for our AFAM and TRLG
Both AFAM and TRLG posted good earning surprises.
We bought them cheap last month (AFAM at $17.41 - now around $30 - and TRLG at $10.53 - now around $20) and we are now in a very positive territory.

ADM missed the Street estimates
May 5th 2009
ADM missed the estimates. It will go down today. How much? Hard to tell.
It is a bad quarter, but the trailing twelve months performance is not bad at all.
I would suggest to keep the current stop loss at $23.20.

IPHS
On March 17th my system gave me the signal to buy IPHS.
From August 2008 to March 2009 IPHS decline from over $40 to less than $8.
During this dive it continued to make money and its PE ratio became more and more interesting.
In addition to that, from March 2nd 2009 my humble system started to tell me to watch IPHS for a possible trend inversion.
As I said, the signal arrived on March 17th and I was able to buy IPHS at $9.47. IPHS posted very good results yesterday, better than forecasts, and it gained 11%, closing over $17.
Analyzing IPHS fundamentals we see that it has an excellent value: very low PE and Price to Cash Flow, low Price Sales and average Price Book.
It still has good Current and Quick ratios, but it is using debt quite aggressively, compared to the industry average.
Finally it has first class profitability, growth and management effectiveness (best ROE in industry).
So the question is: should you buy IPHS? I would say "No". It may even go back to $40 and over, but IMHO buying IPHS now may be risky. Let's keep a stop loss on it at $11.93.

Time to buy ADM
May 4th 2009
It looks like it is time to buy ADM. It has good PE/Price Book/Price Sales/Price Cashflow.
Good financial situation. Average profitability, but good effectiveness and growth.
I would suggest to buy it and set an initial stop loss order at $23.20.
