At one time or another, I'm sure that we've all been outraged by stories of rampant government waste - especially in areas of aerospace- and defense-related research.
But today I'm going to tell you about a NASA-related tech program that led to a big payoff. In fact, investors who knew what to look for could've turned $10,000 into $41,900 - a 319% return - in just 29 months.
I'm relating this story for a couple of reasons. It shows you why I spend so much time looking at the research that's underway in labs at both the university and national level.
And it also explains why I write to you so frequently about cutting-edge science where I believe there's a big potential payoff.
My ultimate goal, you see, is to tell you about profit opportunities like this one before they occur.

HP, Dell Land In Pricey Bidding War as Tech Sector M&A Heats Up
A rare technology sector bidding war raged on late Tuesday as data storage company 3Par Inc. (NYSE: PAR) announced it would start merger talks with Hewlett-Packard Co. (NYSE: HPQ), pressuring rival Dell Inc. (Nasdaq: DELL) to make another bid to win the key growth opportunity into enterprise storage business.
In a Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filing late Tuesday, 3Par wrote that HP's $1.6 billion offer was "reasonably likely" to win support from its board. HP announced the $24 per share bid Monday, topping Dell's Aug. 16 offer of $1.15 billion, or $18 a share, by 33%.
The steep price increase comes at a time when tech companies are vying to acquire businesses that broaden their product offerings, and tech powerhouses are quickly snatching up quality companies.

Buy, Sell or Hold: Bank on the Broadband Revolution with EMC Corp. (NYSE: EMC)
Major fund managers on Wall Street continue to be very cautious and underestimate certain key trends - one of which they have yet to even catch on to.
In the last few weeks, I recommended you to invest in a number of companies that are linked to this underestimated trend: The broadband explosion.
In fact, we got into Cisco Systems Inc. (Nasdaq: CSCO) before that company unveiled its new "super-router." I also recommended buying other beneficiaries of the broadband trend, including Juniper Networks Inc. (NYSE: JNPR) and JDS Uniphase Corp. (Nasdaq: JDSU). Today, we continue diversifying into other beneficiaries with a very strong player: EMC Corp. (NYSE: EMC).
