I don't usually ask others for stock advice, but thought it would be fun
to see what others out there think right now. I'm in a position to pick a
couple of stocks as investments in my IRA, and I like to use a value
approach. In other words, I look for companies that are currently out of
favor, or that the market has sold off more than would seem to be warranted,
given long term prospects for the company.

I just loaded up on a couple of inexpensive big pharma stocks, and would
like to balance those out with stocks from other sectors. Anyone have any
suggestions for an undervalued stock that is likely to bounce back at least
20% over the next couple of years? (preferably one with little or no debt,
and a stock price that is less than 10x cash flow)

Thanks!

Any rebound (ah, actually growth, since the market has been essentially
flat since the day GW took office) will be tax free.

Funny you should say the same thing my financial advisor said. Anything
I have had taken out for the past 6 months has gone into a Roth. Some
of what's already in my IRA will be transferred slowly to a Roth over
the next 5 years, so as to not put me in another tax bracket.

He meant 10x cash flow coming in, not going out.

TM is less than 10x cash flow. P/B is 1.29 and forward P/E is 10.79.

PCZ is less than 10x cash flow. P/B is 1.95 and forward P/E is 5.12.

If you can sell covered calls in your IRA, some ETFs might work for
you.
