Taken from a Barrons article in the November 27 issue. The idea is that after the crash, many companies let too much cash build up but may have gone too far. Now they are cheap enough to get bought by LBO firms, who are flush with more cash than ever. Here is the list of candidates Barrons thinks can get bought.
