ArmorGroup Roller Coaster Back Up
ARG
+2.81%

(closed on 01/29/07)
According to my broker, shares in ArmorGroup International (ARG/LN or AMGPF/OTC) closed yesterday at about USD $1.46. That's back to where it was before plunging 11% last week after announcing its year-end results would be marginally lower than expected.
Anything could happen -- as you've read me write repeatedly, there are risks with this pick. The pipeline of projects could dry up, for one thing. So even though I'm cautiously optimistic about ArmorGroup, there are no guarantees.
