BusinessWeek picks stocks that could double Graphic_rating_buy ANSS
+36.57%
in 1482 days

Filed under: Forecasts, Bargain stocks, Stocks to Buy, Best Stocks for 2008

Most of us would be thrilled to invest in a stock that doubles our money, but it certainly isn't easy to find these stocks. According to data provider Capital IQ, in the last year only 1.4% of 6,700 stocks trading on the U.S. exchanges were able to double their price.

<>BusinessWeek started hunting some of these potentially great stocks by asking fund managers to choose those firms expected to provide 100% returns in the next few years. Of course, the resulting list is by no means a sure thing, since major factors suc...

Reiterate Buy on Ansys Following Ansoft Acquisition Graphic_rating_buy ANSS
+79.71%
in 1525 days
3/31 - "Ansys’s acquisition of Ansoft extends the firm’s presence into electronic and electromechanical simulation and design. In essence, this is a continuation of a trend that began with the acquisition of Fluent in 2006 (a fluid design simulation platform). The merger further catapults Ansys ahead in terms of breadth in the simulation segment. We expect the combination to be a positive for investors. Reiterate Buy rating." "...we concluded that the transaction is approximately $0.02 dilutive to our CY’08 non-GAAP EPS estimate and $0.05 accretive to CY’09...Our 12 month $45 price target ...

Ansys Doing Well in Weak Economic Environment Graphic_rating_buy ANSS
+79.74%
in 1525 days
3/5 - "ANSYS, Inc. is enjoying strong organic growth trends, which has enabled it to experience several excellent quarters in a row. Thus far, it seems the tough economic conditions haven't slowed the company. Beating the Street has become old hat for the company as it has posted an average surprise of 19.9% over the past four quarters." "This year's earnings estimates have risen six cents to $1.36 over the past week. Three of the four covering analysts have increased their forecasts over the past month. The stock's ROE is 17%, above the industry average of 11%."

Ansys Investors Don't Like Ansoft Acquisition Graphic_rating_buy ANSS
+79.82%
in 1525 days
3/31 - "Investors signaled their distaste for the deal by sending Ansys shares down more than 7%. In fact, the two companies now have a combined market cap that is $100 million lower than it was before the deal was announced." "As an Ansys shareholder, I am disappointed that the shares are lower. However, I still think Ansys works in an attractive market segment and am willing to give some benefit of doubt to a management team that has quadrupled shareholder wealth over the last four years."
