UVE just announced a 20 cent dividend, double the previous dividend paid on October 30 based on Q3 results to be reported soon!! That's TWO dividends announced for record amounts just before Q3 results are out, stating specifically that it was in light of Q3 results. UVE is a Florida Hurricane Insurer making money hand over fist since the 2005 Hurricane season shot rates up massively, drove out fearful competitors, and the lack of hurricanes since has been a major windfall for this once tiny company trading for as little as .04 now well over $3.00.

What's not to like? Another weak storm season for Florida, PE of 2-3, trades for just over book value, pays a massive dividend yield, and announced a share buybacks this year one of which they completed it 2 months later during Q3. Finally, they recently just got licensed to expand into North Carolina, South Carolina, Hawaii, as well as additional high-end markets in Florida.

FRE update....no long accumulating. Pure tiny position flip so no longer will it be in my list of "stocks to accumulat" for now, but that can certainly change. Conference being held at 2pm so we'll see what they have to say.

>> Not only may it have to tap the $100 billion federal backstop in the coming months, Fannie said. If the company continues to suffer substantial losses "or to the extent that we experience a liquidity crisis that prevents us from accessing the unsecured debt markets, this commitment may not be sufficient to keep us in solvent condition or from being placed into receivership," it said in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. <<

If FRE goes into RECEIVERSHIP, then it's a game changer for the bad. Be careful. FRE/FNM is only for money you can afford to lose 100% of. Let's see what 2pm brings us. It could fly in either direction.

Picked up a starter of CNO at $2.45. What can I say, the stock is very cheap based on operating earnings of .32, so I was attracted to it. The downside is these investment loses. I think they will be able to get through them. If they do, this stock will start posting .30-.40 a quarter, even a 5 PE times .30 a quarter, would equal $6.00 a share. Their are risks here, but I feel they are worth it. Stock also trades significantly under book as well. Just my opinion.

BAMM

I brought around $2.20-$2.22. This will be a very small position, but I believe the book retailer is too cheap here in the low $2.20's. Here's why.

Balance Sheet: BAMM Trades at a deep discount to book. Yes pardon the pun here. Book Value is $6.28 on BAMM.

History of Dividends: BAMM pays dividends in 2005 they started paying .05 a share a quarter, now they pay .09 a share a quarter at an annual rate of .36 a share. Now originally the dividend yield was no bid deal, but with the huge drop in the stock price they are paying a dividedn Yield of over 16%.

Steady Long-Term Grower

Revenues
2006 503.751 Million
2007 520.416 Million
2008 535.128 Million

Although Revs will probably be down in 2009, this is a company that has executed when the environment was better. And even in this bad environment they remained profitable earning .10 in the first two quarters, and probably will be mildly profitable in the 3rd quarter. Q4 is where BAMM makes most of it's Profits although it will not Match last year.

Even if Revs are 155 Million
Even if Margin are 32%
Even if Costs are 35.5 Million
Interest Expense at 500k
Taxes at 38%

EPS will still come in at .54 for q4, so .60-.75 for the Year is very possible, which mean the dividend Yield is safe until the growth returns.

I do not like Retail, and would not own a retail play, but BAMM is paying me big to simply wait, and I believe the dividend is safe and it will Trade at 3 or so time fiscal 09 earnings, so I believe BAMM is very attractive in the 2.20's. Just my opinion.

Will update this a bit today.

EGMI potential 20+ bagger IMO. They are debt-free, cash rich, making money hand over fist every quarter and growing rapidly. Guidance, which they always seem to beat, is +.10 for 2008, +.14 for 2009 (40% growth) while forecasting long term they expect growth to be "more aggressive than 40%."

With a PE of less than 3 for 2009, EGMI is a mega-bagger in the marking IMO.

(1) EGMI recently signed a five-year licensing agreement for distribution into Native American Indian-owned Casinos and Lotteries. It implies approximately an additional $0.02 in pre-tax earnings for 2009. This may not be factored into the guidance identified above:

(2) Recently, Lord Steinberg has been appointed as Executive Chairman of the Board. He has a very impressive background in the gaming industry. His contacts and industry experience are likely to expand EGMI's growth. In addition, he has been buying large blocks of shares in the open market.
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?Message_id=29832911

(3) EGMI has an investment in a mobile phone company that may provide a sizeable gain as they have plans to IPO in the near future.

(4) EGMI is expanding into games and toys. Their first product in this area is a game for the very popular children's series "Thomas and Friends."
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?Message_id=30699277

(5) EGMI is considering a stock buyback program due to the fact that they are sitting ontop of so much cash.

(6) Electronic Game Card Started At Buy By Roth Cap
