Thrift Conversions: Jim Royal on thrift conversions and special situations with Tobias Carlisle on The Acquirers Podcast

James F. Royal, Ph.D., got hooked on special situations when he discovered that the stock market sometimes gives away companies for free and sometimes even pays you to take them. He worked at The Motley Fool as an analyst managing a portfolio of spinoffs and thrift conversions, and is employed currently at Bankrate. He has been investing in the stock market for more than 20 years, and has a doctorate from the University of Florida.
