Och-Ziff Analyst Quiet Period Ends (OZM)

Hedge find manager Och-Ziff Capital Management Group LLC (NYSE:OZM) has had an interesting post-IPO trading.  It priced at $32.00, but units in the hedge fund manager have traded as  far down as under $22.00 before the $27.81 close on Friday.

It’s interesting that December 24, a day when most traders are out and one of the most quiet trading days of the year, was the broker quiet period end.  Below are the coverage call initiations we have seen this morning:

  • Goldman Sachs initiated with Buy ($35 target);
  • Keefe Bruyette initiated with Outperform ($33 target);
  • Morgan Stanley initiated with Overweight;
  • JP Morgan initiated with Overweight;
  • Citigroup initiated with Hold ($29 target);

There are other calls that will be hit upon today and perhaps on Wednesday.

In 20 Years, I Haven’t Seen A Cash Back Card This Good

After two decades of reviewing financial products I haven’t seen anything like this. Credit card companies are at war, handing out free rewards and benefits to win the best customers. 

A good cash back card can be worth thousands of dollars a year in free money, not to mention other perks like travel, insurance, and access to fancy lounges.

Our top pick today pays up to 5% cash back, a $200 bonus on top, and $0 annual fee. Click here to apply before they stop offering rewards this generous.
