| Two
Recent Acquisition Targets Move Sharply Higher |
Published: September 12, 2005
Two companies that I've
highlighted in recent issues of my Undiscovered
Micro-Cap Gems
newsletter have
recently received takeover offers.
For starters, clothing manufacturer Haggar (HGGR,
$28.29), which I first introduced to my Undiscovered
Micro-Cap Gems readers several months ago at
$19 per share, recently received a buyout offer from a privately-owned
equity group for $29 per share.
Several days later, Bell Industries (BI, $2.53),
which I profiled two weeks ago at $2.15 per share, rejected an initial
overture from Zeff Capital Partners of $2.53 -- an offer that Bell
deemed inadequate.
These buyout offers illustrate the fact that even small, struggling
companies volatile track records can still have tremendous value. Though
they were clearly on the decline, both stocks were undervalued, and my
readers and I were able to pocket a nice profit on both stocks.
Although Wall Street is all too quick to dismiss such troubled stocks, I
will continue to search for overlooked companies that are trading below
their break-up value. One such example that springs to mind is telescope
maker Meade Instruments (MEAD, $2.35), which is currently trading
for less than its working capital of $2.55 per share.

Income Security
of the Month
Our "Income Security of the Month" for August 2008 invests in a
fast-growing overseas market that doesn't get much exposure in the
mainstream financial press. And although it typically makes enormous
annual dividend payments -- it has paid an average dividend of
25.5% per year over the past five years -- this fund is perhaps
most appealing for its total return potential. Specifically, the
fund has delivered total returns of +178.9% since 2003,
and it ranks in the top 10% of its category over the past decade.
