Wednesday December 29, 5:55 pm Eastern Time Safeguard Scientifics seen as undervalued - report NEW YORK, Dec 29 (Reuters) - Safeguard Scientifics Inc., a holding company that develops Internet-related companies, maybe a value play for investors since it trades at a discount to its holdings, Business Week's ''Inside Wall Street'' column said on Wednesday. Stuart Rudick of Rudick Asset Management told Business Week that he believes Safeguard is trading at a 28-percent discount to its holdings in 14 publicly traded Internet stocks alone. Safeguard also has investments in 200 companies that are privately held. Bob Hiler, an analyst at Credit Suisse First Boston, told the magazine that he rates the stock as a buy and noted that Safeguard has a ''proven ability to identify and acquire stakes in promising early-stage technology companies.''
