1. In-N-Out Burger : If you are not from the West Coast you probably haven’t heard of this one. This burger chain is the Chipotle of hamburgers. The company is able to strive by keeping prices low (even lower than McDonalds) while serving healthy, tasty burgers. Aside from this winning formula, they pay their employees well (minimum: $10.5/hour) and are most importantly, there is so much room for expansion as they are only in California, Nevada, Arizona, Utah.

2. PricewaterhouseCoopers : PWC is the world’s largest auditing firm. They provide auditing services to the most Fortune 100 companies out of the respective ‘Big 4’ accounting firms. Accounting is one of the only professions aggressively recruiting in this bear market meaning the company must be raking in dollars. Lastly, with new International Accounting Standards being developed, PWC will hold expert status in helping companies comply. Oh yea, not to be biased, but I’m going to work them toward the end of the year.

3. The North Face : This is one of my more intuitive picks. The North Face, like you didn’t already know, produces outdoor products specializing in clothing and equipment. The jackets are so popular that they have become the target of scammers selling fakes. This alone doesn’t qualify a buy but the fact that the company has raised prices from 100 to 500 dollars for their winter jackets based on demand does. Look around, which jacket brand easily dominates the cold weather? I’m from sunny California and can even attest.

Ok, got to get back to studying for a test, yeah I have 3 weeks left till I really graduate. But let me know what companies you guys think would do well if they went IPO.
