Despite the "sub prime scare AFN is still kicking and declared her fourth quarter dividend. As I stated earlier I picked up more shares. 50% IRA 50% for trading. Rumor is she may drop her dividend to 1.00 in 08. Who cares. At todays price it is still more then a Money Market account pays with a strong potential for a rise in price.


AFN:  This call was made on 12/22/07 @ $3.69
Rating:   Positive   $3.69 (12/22/07)
Closed:   01/26/2008 @ $3.4 (-7.86% in 35 days)
Target:   $6.00 (+62.60%) in > one year
