Yahoo Finance Barron's Picks And Pans: Range Resources, Snap, Xerox And More

(NYSE: RRC) have been pummeled by a warm winter and weak demand for natural gas.

Even assuming strong growth, it is hard to justify more than half the current price, says the article, which looks to Twitter Inc (NYSE: TWTR) for what to expect following the IPO.
Robin Goldwyn Blumenthal's "Xerox Hits the Restart Button" makes the case that, now Xerox Corp (NYSE: XRX) has spun off its nonprinting businesses, its stock could nearly double. See why Barron's believes investors are getting cheap shares and a good dividend from a large, profitable tech outfit with an interesting pipeline. Plus, Carl Icahn remains Xerox's biggest holder.
