[Financials]
Tuesday, May 7, 3:25 PM Gramercy Property Trust (GPT +1%) moves about 3% off the session low as the earnings call/business plan update reveals a management focused and executing on its plan to turn the company into a pure play equity REIT. The implied cap rate (pg. 27-31) of net lease companies (O, WPC, NNN, LXP, EPR, SRC, ARCP,GTY) of 5%-6.5% is far below the 7.5%-8.5% Gramercy is closing deals at - "(the) widest arbitrage in our experience." 1 Comment [Financials, On the Move]

Sunday, April 14, 8:25 AM The reconstitution of the Russell indexes coming up in June, Credit Suisse aims to anticipate who's in and who's out. The rules-based approach of the Russell 2000 has allowed arbitragers to profit each summer by front-running the moves, making the Russell 2000 ETF (IWM) a poorer play for small cap fans than IJR . Expected among the top 25 adds are ARCP, SRPT, PBYI, ACAD, and WSTC. Among the top 25 deletes: CPST, FCEL, CHKE, OMER, and EML. Comment! [Quick Ideas]
Thursday, April 11, 9:49 AM American Realty (ARCP +0.4%) withdraws its $9.7B proposal to buy Cole Credit Property Trust III after the latter twice rebuffed ARCP's approaches. That was despite the company raising its bid to $12.50/share in cash or $13.59 in stock from $12 in cash or stock. ARCP is also backing out after Cole Credit completed a merger with its external adviser, Cole Holdings. (PR) 4 Comments [M&A, Financials]
Friday, March 29, 5:31 AM ARCP (ARCP) gets a boost in its $9.7B attempt to acquire Cole Credit Property Trust after Cole shareholders sue to block the firm's purchase of its external adviser, Cole Holdings.

Friday, March 22, 9:10 AM ARCP responds in great detail after CCPT III rejects its $5.7B buyout offer, calling Cole's letter "a distraction filled with many inaccuracies and omissions ... rather than engaging ARCP's board in a constructive manner, Cole has instead chosen to disseminate false or misleading information." ARCP is up 5.8% since the Tuesday offer. 8 Comments [Financials, M&A]
Friday, March 22, 3:10 AM Cole Credit Property Trust has turned down a $5.7B acquisition offer from American Realty Capital Properties (ARCP), slating the proposal for being misleading and "deliberately designed to disrupt" Cole's business.

[Financials, M&A, Top Stories]
Wednesday, March 20, 7:34 AM More on American Realty Capital Properties (ARCP): Shares gain 2.1% premarket following the Cole Credit purchase offer announcement.
