BUY
Thinks the deal is safe and will be completed. There are some worries about the financing and that is why it doesn't trade up to the $42.75. There is also a $.36 dividend. It might get pushed out till April but the annualized return is something like 13% or 14%. Nice place to hide.
WEAK BUY
Buy if you don’t mind getting taken out and having a capital gain next to you.
HOLD
Will go private next year. About $2 upside.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jan 30/07. Up 57.1%.) At the time, telecommunications was screaming that it was a good place to be. Pricing was good.
BUY
Trading at a discount because there are concerns about the very large deals that have yet to close and as to whether they are going to be funded. He feels it is highly unlikely that the deal does not get done. Pretty safe arbitrage play.
DON'T BUY
Large shareholder in company. May be other places to put your money to get better return.
TRADE
Not long or short right now. Yield in very high. Credit concerns are all overblown. There are better ways to make money.
TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Oct 12/06. Up 27.5%.) If you buy now, you will end up with $42.75 plus you get 2 dividends.
BUY
Teachers union has an acquisition with a price of $42.50. His model price is $28.47, a -29% differential, so he hopes the deal goes through. Although he doesn't do arbitrages, you could do so and make a nice annual return. You also get a couple of divide
COMMENT
If you hold, you will gain two dollars plus a dividend.
BUY
If the deal is completed, there is a $2 upside as takeover amount is $42.75. Plus dividends. There could be problems financing the deal, but he thinks it will go through. This is not an investment; it is an arbitrage giving it increased risks.
BUY
Feels the deal will go through and that the market is unduly worried about this. The takeout price of $42.75 is an arbitrage opportunity. You get dividends plus $3 growth in 6-7 months from now. About a 10% yield in 8 months.
BUY
There is a takeout price of $42.75. He is a firm believer that the Teachers’ have firm financing.
BUY
Trading at a discount to the buyout price, as some investors are concerned the deal may not be completed. He feels this is very unlikely. There is a premium here that you could pick up but you have to assess the risk.
SELL
Nervous that the bondholders, who have really taken quite a haircut at 25% to 30%, are going to be able to change the metrics of the deal.
