What are the management fees, overhead, etc. like in that fund?

Anyone also considering SIRI?

NANO and AHL,but stay very suspicious of all bank and insurance companies,and have stop limits in,as well as a "greed limit".Tech has been taking a breather over the last couple of weeks,but maybe Dell's good earnings report will get 'em going again.Happy Hunting!

I'm pulling the trigger on AIB this week. UK banks have lagged way behind the rally in US financials and I think that they're going to start to catch up now. The NAMA program set up by the Irish government to purchase sour loans from the banks should help clean up their balance sheets, and AIB is in talks to sell a substantial stake to Royal Bank Of Canada, which should add cash and stability, making AIB a potentially very good long term investment. Of the other major UK banks, I also like IRE, BCS and LYG, but AIB looks like it may be the best bet right now.

JL the link is dead...I've been looking at AIB but I've got enough tied into BAC and USB that I'm not moving anymore into financials right now, but maybe in the future.

I'm starting to take a close look at GHM now. Small cap, energy sector, wholly owned subsidiary in China, no debt to speak of, coming off very nice Q2 earnings, and buying back it's own stock. It's up off it's low, but then everything is right now. I've been looking to move more into energy, and this one looks to have a very good long term potential.

Probably no surprise to you savvy investors here, but the link should be good now:

Btw, I just got some PCX and NEP today. I will look at getting some LYG tomorrow. Hope the dip continues!!

Did anyone buy some NANO?You would have made about 33 percent this week.Closed it out at 3:30 today,junky fundamentals,but hey,whose been looking at fundamentals in this crapshoot bounce.Closed out my QQQQ one day too early,but have held that since April,can't be too greedy.Massive Nat Gas shut ins will probably get us into the low $4/decatherm by January.Good luck to all

I picked up small amounts of SIRI around Thanksgiving, at $0.14. Now it's trading around 0.67. I'm diversifying in small amounts, so I probably won't buy more any time soon, but I think it's still going up. Gut feeling.
