Carla Pasternak's Premiere Issue of High-Yield International Just Released

Government's Biofuel Timetable Could Spell +15,900% Growth
+15,900% growth might seem far-fetched... but it's not. In fact, it is mandated by law. And I've identified the ONLY stock positioned to capture this growth.

The Silver Lining to a Falling Dollar
Despite the U.S. national debt, there is a silver lining for income investors. This massive spending, combined with movement out of U.S. Treasuries, is going to take its toll on the dollar, and international income investors could reap the rewards in the form of higher dividends.



Takeover Treasures Return in Excess of +40%

Published: July 14, 2008

Even on the worst of days when nearly all ticker symbols are in the red and the major averages tumble, there will always be a handful of stocks that buck the trend and finish with hefty double or triple-digit gains.

Take this past Wednesday, for example, when the Dow Jones bled more than 200 points. Tiny SGX Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq: SGXP) skyrocketed +125%.

More often than not, these sharp one-day surges are the result of a buyout offer, and that was indeed the case with SGX -- which Eli Lilly (NYSE: LLY) has just agreed to purchase. Typically, acquiring companies are willing to pay a hefty premium to make a deal happen, which means news of a takeover can drive a targeted stock through the roof almost instantly. It's no wonder then that so many people spend hours looking to pinpoint potential takeover candidates.

That was precisely what prompted Market Advisor editor Paul Tracy to hunt down potential buyout targets in his January 2005 newsletter. At the time, Paul singled out three companies that appeared to be ripe for a possible takeover. And before long, two of those firms were indeed bought out. Shoe maker Saucony was taken over by Stride Rite, and oil/gas producer Unocal was acquired by Chevron (NYSE: CVX) for a hefty +42% premium.

As Paul pointed out, though, it's best to look for companies capable of standing on their own two feet, because there is no guarantee that a deal will materialize.

The third pick from that report? TheStreet.com (Nasdaq: TSCM) hasn't been taken over, but shareholders probably don't mind. Thanks to popular personalities like Jim Cramer and a growing base of paid newsletter subscribers, the shares have climbed from $4.46 to Friday's close of $6.25, and paid out $0.30 a share in dividends for a total return of +46.8%.

Fresh off that success, Paul has just written a new special report aimed specifically at finding takeover targets, where he not only outlines exactly how to spot a potential buyout candidate, but also identifies five of the most promising targets on the market today.
