My September 2010 report about Hypoport shares came out just in time. Back then, the company was considered an exotic financial services provider with low liquidity and a niche business. Much of that perception has changed. Since October, four banks, brokerage firms and research houses have reported about the company and the share has recently been trading quite actively. The share price is now EUR 12, compared to EUR 7.50 when I first reported about it. After a 57% gain in 4 months, short-term orientated investors can consider taking some or all of their profits. Anyone investing with a longer-term view should keep in mind that Hypoport has now officially made it its goal to rise from being the 13th largest German financial services provider to being the 5th largest by 2014.
