great bargains
Most of the great bargains out there now seem to be in the banking industry. I think historically banking and finance companies have made up the majority of the stock market. I'm sure that being near center stage of the recent credit crisis has also caused a lot of selling of their shares. Though there were a couple of cases of bank nationalization, they seemed to be mostly necessary to prevent a domino effect. I think it's very clear that most voters don't want nationalized anything, whether it's in their best interest or not. There are occasionally a couple of different industries that show up in "good value" screens, notably shipping and energy companies. I'm going to try to make up a diversified selection with a moderately heavy composition of banks. They look too good to pass up.
