Spin-offs make millions for investors...
It's hard for investors to ignore the fact that shares
of medical device company Alcon have more than tripled
since being spun from Nestlé, and financial company
CIT Group has nearly doubled since parting from Tyco;
Viacom (VIA) became the latest company to announce a
spin-off this week when it said it will split its
cable business and CBS unit into separate stocks. That
comes just after Ford Motor (F) said it will spin off
rental-car unit Hertz and as pressure mounts for
General Motors (GM) to spin off its GMAC finance arm.
So what is next?
As a individual investor, spin-offs and risk arbitrage
offer incredible money making opportunities, since
often major holders of the stock, such as index funds,
are required to sell off the shares of the new company
they receive. Warren Buffett himself took advantage of
these types of opportunities in the early part of his
investment career, and so did Benjamin Graham. In most
situations today the market is pretty efficient, so
the opportunities for individual investors to find the
next 300% gain are not always that apparent. So where
are the hidden gems? Where do astute investors find
opportunities to double or triple their money? Take a
look at business development companies.
Business development companies are specifically
designed to encourage the growth and success of
individualbusiness( which is 70& of the US GDP),but
with certain advantages a individualinvestor is not
typically allowed, these advantages include
investments in private companies that can be incubated
and then "spun off" into stand alone public companies;
as wells as opportunistic high interest bridge loans
and mezzanine financings. These financings are often
loaded with addional stock options, warrants,
dividends and fees paid by the client companies to the
coffers of the BDC.
Advantage Capital Development Corporation (OTC:AVCP),
a business development company (BDC)
Following the collapse of the bubble market in the
late 1990's,a vacuum developed in the capital markets,
creating a significant opportunity for Advantage
Capital and other BDCs to provide last-mile financial
solutions for promising individual companies that need
capital to grow. Advantage Capital has taken advantage
of this and obtained $25 million in equity financing.
AVCP's investment philosophy is to partner with
entrepreneurs and management teams that are committed
to creating major enterprises via investments in their
organizations. By owning shares of stock in companies
like AVCP, individual investors have a chance to cash
in on AVCP portfolio companies.
Take the time to look at AVCP; it could be a real nice
percentage gainer for an investor in the short-term
and a home run for the long-term investor. AVCP is
trading extremely low, apparently under the radar
screen of most Wall Street investors and analysts. We
believe this offers the astute investor a fantastic
risk reward scenario in an under-bought market. We are
therefore recommending AVCP up to a $.47 target price
range. - Str0ng_Buy

I started documenting stock spam in October 2005, but in November 2005, the quantity of stock spam became so large that I put it on hold. In mid-May 2006 I decided to take it up again on a trial basis, limiting reports to one per day per stock, but I gave up again in mid-June 2006 as the workload was still excessive relative to the importance of the issue. Others continued to do a fine job of it -- see the links at left -- but according to statistics from spamnation, the problem peaked in 2007 and dropped off abruptly in 2008, becoming a mere trickle in 2009/10. I'm leaving this blog online as a historical reference, but I have no further plans to update it, and I've disabled comments because nobody has tried to post anything but spam comments here in a long time.
