		<description><![CDATA[When I was young, stupid and chasing girls, good looks were the most important attribute a female could have as far as I was concerned. A disastrous relationship with an insane model changed my thinking pretty quickly. After splitting up with “Crazy Christine,” as my friends used to call her, I became much more interested in what was beneath the surface. The same can be said about my approach to stocks. Most investors look at earnings when evaluating a company. And that’s a great place to start. Typically, a company that’s consistently increasing its earnings has a healthy business, and the stock should emulate that success. But I like to dig deeper and really get to know the company. To do that, I look at cash flow. Cash flow is ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Confirming earlier rumors, Akamai Technologies Inc. (AKAM) recently announced that it is buying competitor Cotendo for $268.0 million in cash. The deal is expected to close in the first half of 2012. Shares jumped 18.6% to close at $31.63 following the news. Cotendo specializes in software and services that improve the delivery of content across the Web and on mobile-device networks.

(ZNGA), MyYearBook, HTC, Microsoft Corp. (MSFT) and Google Inc. (GOOG). Over the last 12 months, Cotendo emerged as the most notable competitor of Akamai in the higher margin value-added services (VAS) market, after it won some major deals. Cotendo ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Akamai Technologies, Inc. (AKAM) reported earnings of 25 cents per share in the third quarter of 2011, which missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by a penny. However, earnings per share (EPS) increased 8.7% from the 23 cents per share reported in the year-ago quarter. Reported EPS includes stock-based compensation expense and amortization of capitalized stock-based compensation but excludes amortization of other intangible charges and restructuring charges. The year-over-year growth was primarily driven by strong revenues; partially offset by higher expenses, which dragged margins in the reported quarter. Operating Performance Gross profit (including stock-based compensation) increased 7.3% year over year to $188.6 million in the reported quarter. However, gross margin contracted 230 basis points (bps) year over year to 67.0% in the same period. Adjusted EBITDA (including stock-based compensation) increased 7.3% ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Louis Basenese, Chief Investment Strategist, Wall Street Daily Friday, June 3, 2011: Issue #1527 Global merger and acquisitions activity volume just surpassed the $1-trillion mark. Not only that, but the market also hit that milestone six weeks earlier than it did last year. Why should we care? I’ll let National Semiconductor Corp. (NYSE: NSM) do the talking for me. On April 4, Texas Instruments (NYSE: TXN) announced it was buying National Semiconductor for $25 a share – a 75 percent premium to the share price at the time. And look what happened… Since nobody invests for sport. The reason to care about an uptick in mergers and acquisitions activity is easy: greed. We’re in the market to make money – pure and simple – and nothing jolts a stock ]]></description>
