Jamba Juice Holds as Shares Are Accumulated - Symbol SVI

Click Here For The Jamba Juice Acquisition News!

It looks like SVI the acquirer of privately held Jamba Juice held steady most of today. It feels like the shares were being quietly accumulated throughout the day in an effort as to not drive the shares higher. There was probably some profit taking today from those who were in at the $7.50 - $8.00 level?? That's good for those who want in! The announcement was just made this Monday of the merger. No IPO was done to save millions of dollars on investment banking fees from firms like Goldman Sachs, Lehman, JP Morgan and others, a smart move!

We are now waiting for the Institutional Fund Managers to step in and take a BIG position and take the stock to the $15.00 level, then a continued pace to $20.00+ as more and more news is released and the shares are placed in tight hands.

The stock was $7.50 on Friday afternoon then ran up +21.7%, then faded -9%, followed by a run up of +34%, and a drop of -10%. Now that the drop has occurred, we would now forsee a run up to the next level of around $13.00 or so.

Steven Berrard, the former chief executive of Blockbuster Inc. and co-founder of AutoNation Inc., on Monday announced his latest business venture -- leading a group that is buying the fast-growing smoothie chain Jamba Juice Co.

Services Acquisition Corp. said it is paying $265 million for the privately-held Jamba Juice, which is based in San Francisco. The chain -- which opened its first location in 1990 -- reported $345 million of sales last year at its 532 locations nationwide.

The plan I understand pre-IPO was for Jamba Juice to open 80 - 100 stores in 2006. Not that SVI is involved I suspect that they will follow suit as Starbucks did and open 1 new store every day, as well as sell in Hotels, Hospitals, Universities, etc...

Institutional Buying?? VPRT, NYX, ARII Today

Looks like there is institutional buying on VistaPrint, American Railcar, and NYSE Group today.

They are Top Movers for the day.

Expect VPRT to approach the $35.00 - $37 level soon. VPRT was up $2.00 early today on as little as 25,000 shares. There is a lot of interest building with VPRT.

VistaPrint - VPRT Update

Getting a feel for what is going on with VPRT - I understand that the company is currently involved in a number of marketing and road show meetings where they are talking to their institutional clients about the strong growth that continues with VistaPrint. This company has quarterly revenue growth of 75%, with average daily volume of 151,000 shares. Despite the recent pullback, the fundamentals are still there. Also, you can be assured that they probably have had a strong January - March so far due to many of their 6,000,000 client companies who have renewed their spending budgets allowing them to do more printing since the beginning of the year. My guess is that when April comes, they will have another record quarter!

The bottom must be near on this company for those looking to acquire the shares or add to their positions.
