    By Jacob Wolinsky - April 5, 2013 | Tickers: KELYA, NC, PBI

    For a variety of reasons, stock markets tend to overreact on certain issues and overlook some very basic phenomenon. Corporate turnarounds are such cases where markets often tend to discount the work in progress.

    However, identifying these early indicators can lead to smart gains for investors. Here are some examples:

    Shareholders of Hyster-Yale Materials Handling (NYSE: HY) must be quite happy when its share price climbed up consistently, from around $38 per share in the beginning of October 2012 to $55.50 per share.

    By Anh HOANG - January 14, 2013 | Tickers: NC, SWK, ANDE

  • Break Up Nacco Industries

    By David Talley - December 29, 2011 | Tickers: CAT, DE, JAH, NC
