Starting to get that feeling that a buyout may be in the works!!! Ask yourself Why No News on a new CEO replacement yet? Why No news release of 20-F filing, Not on company website or in a press release for the public!? Little to no volume being traded? MM'S appear to be trying to shake shares from weak hands while not selling many at current levels!? Company seems to be acting like they are in some sort of a quiet period!? MBD


Signs a Company Is About to Be Acquired
Is your stock about to get bought out? Here are a few ways to tell if a company might become an acquisition target.

As a shareholder of a business that's just agreed to be acquired, you're likely to have mixed feelings. On one hand, you might lament the fact that the long runway for growth you anticipated will now be muted since the company is probably becoming a small piece of a much larger enterprise.

On the other hand, you can feel proud that the analysis that led you to buy the stock in the first place was solid enough that a well-capitalized buyer (with the help of a team of highly paid professionals) came to the exact same decision. Usually, the quick stock price jump is a nice consolation, too.

But how can an investor spot an acquisition before the deal is announced? While it's impossible to know for sure, here are a few real-world signs that a company is about to be bought out.

1. Dominance over a key market segment that larger rivals can't easily replicate
The surest way for a company to grab an acquirer's attention is to develop a lock on a market segment that a larger rival needs. It's also key in this scenario that it would be costly and/or time consuming for the bigger competitor to duplicate this success.
