Q: Could you provide brief summary to I'm sure a complicated question?
How is it that some analysts, including 5i, are able to predict companies will be taken over (like People was recently?).
It sounds like sometimes companies can seek it as a long-term plan (eg is that Well's plan?), I know sometimes they're hostile, and sometimes just seem advantageous for all. What are the usual qualities? Eg undervalued, but growing profits? Usually small-cap?
What companies would you not be surprised to see bought out over the next year?
Q: I asked this question a couple of days ago but haven't yet received a reply. I was wondering if you thought this stock, THS, was a good small cap investment in the US housing area. Someone likes it since it went up 78 cents today.
Thanks

What comes to mind are JPMorgan acquiring Solium Capital and Goldman Sachs putting in an offer for all of People. What other such small Canadian companies are liking to "suffer" this acquisition fate?.....Tom
