Hi Mohan, check out this newer thread of my blow-up picks:
Subject 31937

Since I started the new thread, PRGX fell from $34 to $23 in one week around X-mas on accounting allegations in a short-selling newsletter, but has since rebounded. Nonetheless, I was positioned accordingly for that one. TNB dropped $10 in one session on an earnings warnings and double restatement (to what Merrill Lynch had tagged just weeks earlier as 'indecipherable, confusing financials'), and TYC dropped another $6 or so when the SEC launched the investigation, but has since rebounded.

Kind of interesting though that the old list has been hot lately with blow-ups in LGTO and BMCS in the last 2 weeks. If I had to pick one from that old list which is still a good blow-up candidate, without a doubt it would be the over-owned ERTS.

My current, more extensive list is as follows, but as you will see, aside form the first nine companies listed, the others are not disclosed on the thread's initial post, and thus I have lower confidence in them that a blow-up is imminent.

PRGX
TNB
TYC
SNPS
COCO
BBOX
OPMR
CMVT
CPTH
POS
PCLE
TSAI
SNC
PSUN
ASGN
HNCS
AL
PDCO
AJG
BSYS
USI

Thanks for the feedback!
