I've heard good things about that one. My ultimate best ideas only come a few times a year or less and are all contrarian. I just about always know the company and their industry well enough to see it working out after a sell-off. Kmart years back, Bausch and Lomb a few back, Finish Line etc.etc I think for a pay screener aaii.com’s is good. I’ve heard good things about that one.

Next on my list is Margin of Safety. @Derek Good suggestions. A lot of people follow their favorite Guru portfolios, but I for some reason don't do this. Not even for Buffett. I like looking for small caps which many managers can't get into. @AlexG
