Wednesday Picks

At end of day 4/2/2008:

WFT happened to DEEP??? If a company doesn't have enough liquidity to keep up it's operations, it shouldn't come as a surprise to investors, but this one did! After a 30% rally, the stock dropped 70% overnight. Esh! To alleviate these kind of surprise pains, if a company doesn't have at least a 10% operating margin, I won't consider it from now on.
