More About This Book

Overview

Spin-off to Pay-off is the action-oriented new guide that shows you, step-by-step, how you can capitalize on this investment anomaly. Joseph W. Cornell, a veteran of the investment world and acknowledged authority on this unique investment strategy, clarifies the complex universe of corporate spin-offs by telling you why a corporation creates a spin-off and proven strategies that will make this dynamic environment work for you; 4 reasons spin-offs are generally misvalued by the market and how you can use each of these reasons to isolate the spin-offs with the greatest upside potential; and specific strategies for locking in spin-off profits: when to sell, and sure-fire market signs that let you buy and sell for added profits again and again. More than theory and research, however, Spin-off to Pay-off brings you proven evidence of how some spin-offs have worked for shareholders in the past... while others have left shareholders high and dry. Actual case histories, presented along with Cornell's expert analysis, will fine-tune your sixth sense and clue you in on what signs to watch out for.
