As a stock spin-off investor, if you aren’t already a subscriber you might want to check the Spin-off Report Card Series from the Motley Fool.

The most recent post  is on Vishay Precision Group, VPG.  They gave it an overall B+, but more importantly they spelled out their reasons commenting on four areas–

1. Do institutions want to own the spin-off?
2. Do insiders want to own the spin-off?
3. Does management have incentives to make the spin-off succeed?
4. Does the spin-off transaction expose a “special opportunity”?

I don’t know how often they will be coming out with posts on spin-off stocks, but this is definitely a resource to be included in your tools.
