Press Release: Catablast! Media LLC Closes Its Doors

ABOUT US /OUR HISTORY

We're the guys who read 10Ks in the jacuzzi and stare at squiggly lines all day.

The Catablast! Media Group is an independent provider of investment commentary and research. Originally founded by stock market zealots with unique perspectives on under-followed stocks, Catablast! Media closed its doors in late 2006 after its Founder & President chose to pursue his MBA/CFA at the Kelley School of Business at Indiana University.

Due to its alpha-maximizing idea flow (and wry sense of humor), small cap/mid cap equity research generated by Catablast! Media quickly developed a large following on Wall Street and within months, appeared on major media venues such as Google Finance, Yahoo! Finance, TheStreet.com (NASDAQ:TSCM), and SeekingAlpha.com

OUR INVESTING THEME & STRATEGY

Outperform the major benchmarks by implementing an opportunistic and "event-driven" long/short strategy that combines rigorous fundamental research and savvy trading/technical analysis to capture short-term gains. Our focus on short term gains, however, does not obscure our view of long-term superior returns.

OUR PERFORMANCE RECORD/RESEARCH ARCHIVE

We are glad to announce that an overwhelming majority of our 2006 recommendations have either been acquired or taken private (DGIN, SBL, YCC, FS, UVN, TBL, BGP). Similarly, some of our more momentum-driven ideas (COH, MWRK, IGT, KMX, FDS, GYMB, FLWS, LGF, MA, DLLR) have yielded returns between 45% and 105%, all within our target 6 month - 1Y time frame.

WHAT IS YOUR LATEST BUY RECOMMENDATION?

We understand some of you miss our research and would like to receive any ideas we may have even after we have shut down. That said, our latest report is on DJ Orthopedics (NASDAQ:DJO) and can be found by clicking here. On December 26th, we will publish a short report on Bed Bath & Beyond, on which we have a $47 price target.

CONTACT INFO

Recruiters, analysts, reporters/journalists, and portfolio/fund managers can contact our team by writing to feedback@catablast.com (serious inquiries only, please).
