Fund manager sees big opportunities Small-cap grab-bag: DualStar, Burst.com, Comtex "The opportunities are great if you can find the right company," said Rudick of Rudick Asset Management. (See our earlier profile of Rudick.) Rudick's firm manages about $80 million, much of it in a fund called Mindful Partners. Rudick has been averaging 30 percent or so returns for the past seven years. Another small company in Rudick's portfolio is DualStar Technologies Corp. (DSTR: news, chart). (See stock chart above.) The New York City buildings contractor just received $46 million from real estate company Blackacre Capital Management. DualStar, says Rudick, installs heating systems, air conditioning and ventilation into skyscrapers. Now, as corporations demand DSL lines, fiber-optic cables and other Internet delivery mechanisms as part of their office set-ups, DualStar is trying to recreate itself as a telecommunications contractor. "They wired the Trump Tower, the Empire State Building. They did the heating and ventilation, and now they want to do DSL and the fiber," says Rudick.
