This Spinoff Stock Could Get a Takeover Offer ? and Deliver Big Gains
2011-11-07 19:00:00
When a company breaks itself apart, investors get a number of unique opportunities to profit. First, there's an initial financial information vacuum, since it takes time for the new, independent businesses to report results on their own. Second, spinoffs can result in better-run businesses or lead to an outright acquisition from a larger player, which usually pays a nice price for the deal. In February, I covered the numerous benefits of corporate spinoffs in more detail. I also reported that a company — Fortune Brands — had decided to split itself into three separate companies. The spinoff made total sense: Fortune Brands' operations were completely unrelated, and no one really understood why one company would simultaneously venture . . . → Read More: This Spinoff Stock Could Get a Takeover Offer — and Deliver Big Gains
David Goguen: Four Latin American Junior Takeover Targets Identified
2011-10-31 23:30:00
The Gold Report: China posted its worst growth rate in more than two years during the third quarter. China is one of gold’s biggest buyers and largely drives demand. Should gold bugs be concerned? David Goguen: I don’t think so. While it was the worst growth rate in two years, China still had a very respectable growth rate of 9.1%. Also adding to demand is China’s growing middle class and its affinity toward gold bullion that has lasted centuries and will likely continue for centuries both as a savings vehicle (through retail investment demand) and as the central bank continues with its purchases to diversify its foreign currency reserves. According to figures released by the World Gold Council, China . . . → Read More: David Goguen: Four Latin American Junior Takeover Targets Identified

2011-02-22 05:51:00
Now this entire season we've seen nothing but success stories from our Scissor Diva. Well, with the exception of Dougie Freeman from Provincetown, Ma. Even six weeks later, there was no stopping that man. So, finale at hand, Tabatha Coffey decides to revisit a handful of salons she helped scoop up from the drain of disaster from seasons past. First up, Tantrum, Covina, California. Co-owners Robert and Jody were not exactly team material. And while they fought in the back, the cockroaches took over the front. Run, run for your health! Jody stepped away, leaving Robert the exterminator as sole owner. Tabatha comes back one year later to find Robert is still chewing gum in the classroom, but beyond...
Tabatha's Salon Takeover Season 3, Episode 6 Recap: Dear Abby, I mean

Salon "Touch of Elegance" in Tewskbury, Massachusetts is anything but refined. We meet Tabatha Coffey in the throws of many a WTH moments, and that's just the trailer. I'm already nervous. OMG is the word of the day for owner Debbie, who is shocked and awed, to pummel a phrase. She immediately accuses ex employees of stealing her clientele, to the tune of $20K. Apparently they raked her Rolodex. Debbie is losing money and beyond those thieves, has no idea why. Nine stylists have walked away. How dare they?  Tabatha begins with a behind the scenes look of day to day goings on. Health and safety issues with stylists wearing flip flops. The nerve! Oh wait, Debbie does flip...
Tabatha's Salon Takeover Season 3, Episode 5 Recap: Just pahk your cah
2011-01-11 06:17:00
Today, Tabatha Coffey ventures into a Newbury Street salon, Avanti, located in the middle of Boston proper, just a short walk from Boston Public Gardens and "The Common."  Newbury Street is a brick home, tree lined row where the real estate is exclusively upper end. Families have owned their homes for generations and here, money talks. Ground floor Storefront rent is astronomical. Think Park Place.  Tabatha meets up with Avanti Salon owner Alex and together they watch what dastardly deeds his staff engaged in from earlier that day. We already know this isn't going to be pretty, but crikey! One stylist comes in after an all night bender, another puts her client to work passing color foil, and still another...

As Obama Pretends at Its Freedom, His Gov't Plans Takeover of Internet
2010-09-30 17:00:00
-By Warner Todd Huston In an address to the United Nations on Thursday, Sept. 23, President Obama pledged to preserve a "free and open Internet" and would call out nations that censored content. In a veiled reference to China and other nations that censor the Internet, Obama said that a civil society fosters open government. "Civil society is the conscience of our communities, and America will always extend our engagement abroad with citizens beyond the halls of government. And we will call out those who suppress ideas and serve as a voice for those who are voiceless."...
Federal Takeover of Shorebank a VICTORY For Poor People!
2010-08-21 18:01:00
As Chairman of The Black Leadership Development Institute, (BLDI) Community Banking Coalition, and founding member of The Monroe Foundation's Community Reinvestment Organizing Project, I view the federal takeover of Shorebank a victory and new window of opportunity for grassroots poor people. And I hope that this is a sign to other banks that sit in Chicago's poor communities that you cannot continue to keep ignoring the appeals of the poor, totally dismiss their complaints and think that nobody is listening. Well Shorebank officials may have ignored the poor peoples requests for their attention and got away with it for years, but you can't ignore the federal regulators.

Runners Takeover Wrigleyville

This morning's weather may have seemed ominously dreary but that didn't dampen spirits or attendance of the over 7,000 runners that participated in today's 5th Annual Race to Wrigley benefiting the Chicago Cubs Charities. From street closures to parking regulation flyers - the neighborhood prepared for the crowd to descend upon our streets. Having been inspired by everyone running the Shamrock Shuffle - I signed up for this 5K race a little over a month ago. The course started at Addison and Clark and proceeded through the Wrigleyville neighborhood streets before returning to the stadium - where we ran through the concourse and finished under the famous Wrigley Field Marquee. Friends, families and neighbors came out to cheer on the...

E-Trade (ETFC): Takeover target?
2009-07-16 06:00:00
For the speculatively-inclined, stock expert Mark Skousen looks to E-Trade Financial Corp. (NASDAQ: ETFC), and asks, "Is the company a takeover target?" In his Hedge Fund Trader Alert, he considers that possibility noting, "With 4.5 million accounts, the online broker might be an enticing opportunity.""The high-profile online brokerage firm may be entering stage two of its recovery plan, having announced that it has completed issuing 65 million new shares worth $550 million."Altogether, E-Trade now has raised nearly $2 billion in fresh equity capital to alleviate regulators’ concerns about its roughly $23 billion loan portfolio, including its troubled mortgage securities investments. "Much of the capital involves convertible debentures, but this obligation is favorable toward E-Trade, as the company avoids interest payments with a zero coupon bond."Meanwhile, its online business (4.5 million accounts) continues to expand and se...
Options trading and takeover rumors
2009-04-06 14:00:00
"Takeover rumors are back," says David Nassar in The MarketWatch Options Trader. He says, "One sign of normalcy has returned to the market: takeover rumors that spur wild option trading.""The rumor market has returned strongly. There have been the following rumors this week, all accompanied by sharp upward moves in the stock and heavy call buying."There is a rumored takeover of Heinz (NYSE: HNZ) by Campbell's (NYSE: CPB) as well as Safeway (NYSE: SWY) by Kroger (NYSE: KR)."There is a also rumored takeover of Red Hat (NYSE: RHT) by Oracle (NASDAQ: ORCL) and a rumored takeover of Stryker (NYSE SYK) by Baxter (NYSE: BAX)."None of these rumors has panned out (yet). That's typically the case, and so it doesn't usually pay to buy these stocks or their call options on these moves.However, some of them do pan out."The strongest move and one that wasn't denied by the company's CEO was a rumored takeover of A...

End of Nations - EU Takeover & the Lisbon Treaty
2008-06-06 21:16:00
We set out to make a video about the pros and cons of the Lisbon Treaty and found out to our horror the lies, manipulations and deceit behind the EU. From MEPs, legal experts and EU researches the true nature of the EU unfolded, how it really operates from behind closed doors and away from prying eyes. We discovered the massive power grab away from citizens and nations to the elites that is being proposed in this treaty. Most shocking of all was how our elected representatives are willingly handing us over to this emerging Totalitarian Superstate by deception , propaganda and outright lies. This video details how the structures of the EU really operate, what the full significance of the Lisbon Treaty is and how it is the end of Nations within in the EU. MEPs describe their experience in Brussels and how they are undermined by the real power of the unelected and unaccountable Eurocrats who run the organization. How the politicians are working together for their own selfish needs whil...

Calpine Rejects NRG Takeover Bid
2008-06-02 16:25:00
A merger that would have united the two largest U.S. independent power producers has hit a roadblock. Calpine Corp. (CPN) has rejected NRG Energy Inc.?s (NRG) initial offer, saying the 0.534 shares for each share of Calpine?s approximately 500 million shares outstanding is inadequate. “I don?t think anyone should be surprised by Calpine?s announcement,” Gordon Howald, an analyst with Calyon Securities USA Inc. in New York, told Bloomberg News. Howald has a “buy” rating on NRG shares, but doesn?t own any. “If they were to accept the first bid as laid out, they would probably be doing their shareholders a disservice.” Calpine…
Makeover 2 Takeover Contest, Assignment 1 The Introduction.
2008-05-27 15:48:00
Outlook: The Database Program Let's start at the very beginning ... A very good place to start ... This is the song by Mary Poppins that has been going through my mind since the beginning of the contest, Makeover2Takeover. Having a good, working database is your key to success in sales and in this case Real Estate. Not to mention the vast amount of time that is saved when all of your information is organized into one database. I held my breath when I spoke to Kim Wood and asked her which program she was using. I am an advocate for Outlook. I am been using it for 11 years. I started out with Agent 2000, looked at Top Producer, for about 2 sec and decided that all the real estate specific software programs basically immolate Microsoft Outlook so my assistant and I decided we would stick with that. Kim told me she was using Excel to manage her contacts. "Do you have Outlook?" I asked with a little bit of anxiety. "Yes, but I only use it for email." Kim responded. The sound of relief c...

Trio of Chinese takeover targets

And I'm not just talking about oil, either. Fact is, the Chinese have a ravenous appetite for virtually all commodities."While I don't have any inside knowledge about what companies the Chinese have in their sights, I do know what industries are strategically important to their lofty growth objectives.

Rumours, Rumours Everywhere - Pep Guardiola to takeover as Coach
2008-05-06 06:35:00
Spanish press has reported a story that Barcelona board has decided to replace Frank Rijkaard with Pep Guardiola. Josep Guardiola Sala, who is very fondly known as Pep Guardiola has captained F C Barcelona and Spain. He has played for Barcelona B team and the first team as a defensive midfielder. He was a prominent member of Johan Cryuff's "Dream Team". He is currently managing the Barcelona B team. It was initially rumoured that he will only be the second choice as he is not experienced enough. Another set of rumours which are floating again links to Giovani Dos Santos. It is strongly rumoured that he may exit Barcelona as the board is looking to replace the existing attacking pair of Ronaldinho, Henry and Giovani. It is very disturbing to a Barcelona fan and one who believes in the system of developing players. It's a much more dangerous trend to compare a fresher like Giovani to the likes of seasoned players like Ronaldinho and Henry. This also might send a wrong signal to the ...
Microsoft gives up Yahoo Takeover Bid
2008-05-05 08:41:00
Microsoft Corp. withdrew its $42.3 billion bid to buy Yahoo Inc. on Saturday, scrapping an attempt to snap up the tarnished Internet icon in hopes of toppling online search and advertising leader Google Inc.The decision to walk away from the deal came after last-ditch efforts to negotiate a mutually acceptable sale price proved unsuccessful.The talks reached a breaking point after Jerry Yang and David Filo, the co-founders of Sunnyvale-based Yahoo, flew to Seattle to meet personally with Microsoft Chief Executive Steve Ballmer and Kevin Johnson, who runs the software maker's unprofitable online services division, according to someone familiar with the talks.
