symbol name last price % change open
  • +
  • TEX
    Terex Cp
  • $19.13
  • +0.47%
  • $19.30

  • FHN
    First Horizon Ntl
  • $14.19
  • +2.68%
  • $14.09

At 17.25, First Horizon is selling for just under book value owing to mortgage woes. Bulls think the attractive state franchise is worth at least twice that.

People owning FHN also tend to own: BFKCHKCMCSACOPDBNDFJEWT

  • HGG
    Hhgregg Inc
  • $21.07
  • +3.18%
  • $20.51

Hhgregg should rebound heftily if the consumer slowdown proves shallow. But even in a contraction, Lick thinks it is unlikely that per-share earnings next year will fall below $1.05. After all, belt-tightening families passing up the Aruba vacation or a second Lexus might come to regard a modest flat-screen plasma TV as necessary consolation.

People owning HGG also tend to own: DODSXEGOGMEKOMCDMTL

  • +
  • C
    Citigroup Inc
  • $4.06
  • +0.25%
  • $4.12

Though Singapore still trails Switzerland in private-banking assets, it's fast closing in. This year, its private-banking growth should hit 30%, versus single digits for Switzerland.
