In October, private equity powerhouse, TPG, scored a big win as it took Myer (which is a retailer based in Australia) public. The gains came to a mouth-watering $1.46 billion.

But now there's a huge problem; that is, the Australian tax authorities sent TPG a bill for a whopping $628 million. Its for back taxes, as well as penalties.

Last summer, eBay (EBAY) launched its iPhone app, which turned into an instant hit. If anything, it showed that mobile commerce was not a pipe dream as the downloads reached more than five million.

So, in anticipation of the Christmas shopping season, eBay has launched a new iPhone app. It's called "Deals."

It's a megatrend: the convergence of mobile devices and broadcast television. Keep in mind that worldwide sales of mobile phones hit 1.3 billion last year. Moreover, the growth should continue, especially in emerging markets in Asia, the Middle East, South America and even Africa. Thus, by delivering TV on mobile devices, the media industry can greatly expand its market.

But, there is a need for some critical technologies. And one of the leaders in the arena is Telegent Systems, which has filed to go public this week.

Once a dominant global tech company, Nortel is now in the grueling process of liquidating its assets. For example, over the weekend the company conducted an auction to unload its Metro Ethernet Networks (MEN) division.

The winner? It was Ciena (CIEN), which has agreed to shell out $769 million for the asset. The other bidder was Nokia Siemens.

It was a heated auction, as Ciena's original bid was at $521 million.

Over the past month, Diedrich Coffee has actually been the target of a heated buyout battle from Peet's Coffee & Tea (PEET) and Green Mountain Coffee Roaster (GMCR). In fact, Monday Peet's upped its bid to $32 or $265 million. Investors think the bidding is not over, though.

With the credit crunch and the implosion of CIT, the environment for small business financing has been downright hostile. Basically, many owners have given up on things and instead have focused on creative ways to boost cash flows.

So in light of all this, the announcement of the $500 million small-business plan from Goldman Sachs (GS) and Warren Buffett certainly was an eye-opener. Perhaps your business can get a piece of the action?

Well, the details are fairly sketchy. But here's at when we know so far:

Well, Pinnacle will get even bigger; that is, the company -- along with the financing from Blackstone -- will purchase Birds Eye Foods for roughly $1.3 billion. There will also be debt financing from Barclays Capital (BCS), Credit Suisse (CS), BofA Merrill Lynch (BAC), HSBC and Macquarie Capital.

Wednesday's strong IPO of Fortinet is yet another sign that investors are warming up to early-stage deals -- especially of fast-growing companies.

So does this mean we'll see a public offering of a company like Facebook?

Maybe so. According to Bloomberg News, there has been lots of activity in the private shares of Facebook, which have spiked 42% over the past couple months. The valuation now comes to about $9.5 billion.

As companies get more reliant on technologies, the risks increase substantially because of the explosion of security threats. As a result, spending on information technology (IT) security software continues to grow at a hefty rate -- despite the recession.

One of the clear beneficiaries is Fortinet, which launched its IPO today. The company issued 12.5 million shares at $12.50 each (the price range was $9 to $11). The underwriters on the deal included Morgan Stanley (MS), JP Morgan (JPM) and Deutsche Bank Securities (DB).

What makes Fortinet different? Keep in mind that the traditional approach to IT security is to implement a variety of different products, like firewalls, filtering, etc. However, this can be expensive and bog down network performance.

In tech circles, you will hear lots about "cloud computing." Essentially, this means that software applications are operated through Internet connections -- and processed in huge data centers. Often, the results include lower costs and easier maintenance.

Of course, the dominant player in cloud computing is Salesforce.com (CRM). And based on its latest quarterly report, the company continues to grow and innovate.

If anything, the financial implosion has been a boon for Goldman Sachs (GS), which has posted record-breaking profits and bonuses. The turmoil has also been nice to billionaire investor, Warren Buffett, who is snapping up juicy deals.

Unfortunately, millions of Americans remain unemployed. What's more, small businesses continue to suffer, as sales are tough to grow and financing is almost impossible.

With this in mind, Buffett and Goldman have teamed up for something unique -- that is, to launch a $500 million program to promote small businesses in the U.S.

To unwind its $45 billion in federal loans, Citigroup (C) has been aggressively selling off non-core assets. For example, the company sold its Japanese brokerage -- Nikko Cordial Securities -- and is even planning to take its Primerica unit public.

The dealmaking has continued. This week, Citigroup has agreed to sell its Bellsystem24 -- a major call center operator -- for $1 billion to Bain Capital LLC. All in all, it's a small deal. But every dollar counts, right?

This deal also highlights another trend; that is, the Japanese market is getting more amenable to buyouts, which is certainly a big shift. After all, Japan tries to avoid huge job losses. Yet, this can make it more difficult to streamline companies.

In fact, the Bellsystem24 transaction was able to get financing from a syndicate of Japanese financial institutions that include Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Mizuho Financial Group and Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group. No doubt, this is a sign that key players in Japan are willing to make some changes when it comes to buyouts.

Tom Taulli is the author of various books, including The Complete M&A Handbook.

In any recession, customers get stingy. It's natural.

But is there something different this time; that is, are customers becoming long-term frugal?

Perhaps. With an unemployment rate at 10.2%, it will likely take several years for it to get to normal levels. What's more, consumers are saddled with debt and have experienced drastic reductions in wealth (especially with the fall in the real estate market).

Interestingly enough, rue21 has a spotty past. Keep in mind that in 2002 the company filed for bankruptcy. However, a new management team has certainly made the right moves to get things back on track.

Dollar General Store (DG) started as a wholesaler in 1939 and then became a retailer in 1955, when the company setup its first store. Since then, the company has grown rapidly. Now, Dollar General is the largest discount retailer in the U.S. -- that is, in terms of the number of stores (which is currently at 8,577).

A few years ago, Dollar General went private, with the backing of KKR, Citi (C), Goldman Sachs (GS), Wellington Management and the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board. It was at the height of the buyout boom, with a price tag of $7.3 billion. Only $2.8 billion was in equity.

But now 3Com will no longer be independent. That is, the company is selling out to Hewlett-Packard (NYSE: HPQ) for $2.7 billion in cash or $7.90 per share.
