I have been look for a financial services stock selection for my investment club for a couple of months now. Using the Stock Selection Guide, I have not had much luck until now with Franklin Resources. I have not done all the home work on it yet, i.e., haven't checked out their 10k or 10Q, there is no company homepage for more recent earnings reports, etc., but it looks promising at this point. Value Line ranks a 1 for timeliness in the December 5 publication. (I have not gotten back to the library for the update yet but I will now.) I have to present to my partners in two weeks, so I will complete my analysis soon and I will let you know what I concluded. I came to the board to see if there were any others with ideas on this company.
