Corporate lovemaking or more ?

The latest Barron's has a piece that predicts the year ahead to be even bigger than 2005 for takeovers, with about 50% of Fortune 500 companies indicating that they intend to take part in M&A activity. Among the titles used by this article - An Urge to Merge! Hmmmm ... I have heard that somewhere.

The piece also makes a few picks that I can't go into here, but it is worth reading.

The punchline of that piece - the corporate lovemaking that started over 2 years ago is turning into an orgy! To which I say, the more the merrier - I am referring ofcourse to takeovers.
