Earlier this month I published here on Seeking Alpha a list of 12 companies that had recently been acquired at premiums to the share price that Stockdiagnostics had upgraded them. That same afternoon a 13th company, Easy Link Services International, was acquired.
Well here we are a week later and another company, Cost Plus, Inc. (NASDAQ: CPWM) has announced they will be acquired.
below are posts from my website Equities Research made earlier today.
