Biggie Size this Stock, Please

I bought a 3/4 position in $WEN. The fast-food franchise is a perennial takeover play, and inside The PPT you can find their top institutional holders, as you can with every other stock in the entire market:

Top Institutional Holders (% outstanding)
Trian Partners General Partner, LLC 17.86%
SOUTHEASTERN ASSET MANAGEMENT, INC. 5.84%
Barclays Global Investors UK Holdings Ltd 5.05%
BlackRock Institutional Trust Company, N.A. 4.12%
WELLS FARGO & COMPANY 3.25%
VANGUARD GROUP, INC. (THE) 3.10%

The top holder, Trian Partners, is usually the name mentioned regarding potential buyers.

Rumors aside, the chart of $WEN illustrates that the stock has broken out above the multi-month trading range on strong volume. With earnings on November 12, I will likely trade around this name with the idea that we have seen a bonafide breakout that will lead the stock much higher in the coming weeks and months.

      It has been a very low risk hold from a technical perspective and very, very cheap on many fronts.
