. . . . Finjan Technologies (FNJN) – SELL After we recommended Finjan at $1.64, it shot up to $2.32 for a 42% gain. The pullback to today’s close of $1.37 has been gradual.

Recommendation: Buy Valhi Inc. (NASD: VHI) up to $2.30 per share. The Opportunity: It would be tough to imagine a company that has its hand in a more bizarre combination of businesses.
