Our friends over at Hedge Fund Solutions LLC – Damien Park, who writes The Official Activist Investing Blog and Jon Heller, who writes Cheap Stocks, have officially launched Catalyst Investment Research. This product seeks to identify undervalued publicly traded companies that have the potential to generate outsized returns due to an activist investor’s involvement.
A recent study conducted by April Klein and Emanuel Zur on shareholder activism found that stock prices of companies targeted by activist investors earn 10.2% average returns during the period surrounding an activist’s ownership disclosure and an additional 11.4% abnormal return during the following year.
Hedge Fund Solutions’ research team analyzes every activist investment disclosure filed with the SEC and finds the best investment opportunities with a near-term catalyst for value improvement.
Catalyst Investment Research™ singles out companies with extraordinary value potential where activist investors have taken sizeable investment positions and are pressing management to unlock hidden pockets of value. Each research report examines the activist’s investment thesis, their track record of success in previous interventions and the likelihood that the activist will be instrumental in boosting value in a short period of time.
The research team also examines the fundamental value inherent in the target’s business to determine if the company is truly trading at a discount to its intrinsic value.
We believe that Hedge Fund Solutions’ unique combination of Park’s and Heller’s views on value creates a powerful investment opportunity and, ultimately, can generate outsized investment returns. They’ve had some success to date. Damien repost that companies HFS has examined have gained as much as 250% in value within three weeks of our research being issued. See HFS’s performance to date.
Companies and individuals interested in subscribing to the Catalyst Investment Research™ report can begin by requesting a free 1-month trial at Hedge Fund Solutions’ website.
