Calypso Wireless Inc. (CLYW.PK)

WARNING:  This is a highly speculative stock play

One of my members, Bill P., sent me an email last week about Calypso Wireless Inc. (CLYW.PK).  He said that it could be a huge payday for the right investor.  Having heard such pronouncements from many emailers over the years, I was highly skeptical.  I did my research and I am less skeptical.  However, this is a highly speculative play and should be viewed as such.

Here is what Bill wrote:

Calypso Wireless has significant patents for switching from towers to wifi on the fly.  They presently have a lawsuit against a major shareholder which will probably be settled by a mediator.  It would be more beneficial to go to trial, but they need to organize and go after T Mobile which has infringed on its patents.  Apple, htc, sprint, and motorola have all infringed on the patents.

T Mobile will be the first and are scheduled for court today.  They must submit their side of the argument today.  This will then go to December for court or for T Mobile to come up with a settlement which should be hundreds of millions of dollars.  Next would be the other companies that would follow suit.

Huge paydays are ahead for Calypso Wireless.  This was a $6.00 stock 6 years ago.  It could very easily be there before the end of next year, maybe sooner.  It should be moving forward from the .02 to .03 trading range. Most in the know investors look for this to be at least .50 cents by December.  Not a bad return. This will happen.  Calypso will clean up their internal problems in the next 90 days and as a united board of directors, they will take down the big guys and receive huge royalties. Could be a HUGE pop. (emphasis added by me)

Bill is an individual investor who runs a business.  My conversations with him lead me to believe that he is a serious investor….so I looked deeper into this stock and found that he may be on to something.

Calypso Wireless, the company - According to CLYW’s website, they are the company behind the ASNAP™ technology for which it was granted U.S. Patent #6,680,923 titled “Communication system and method” www.uspto.gov (search U.S. patent number 6,680,923), which covers the seamless roaming of voice, video and data between Wide Area Network access points, such as cellular towers (GSM/GPRS/EDGE, CDMA, WCMDA etc.) and short-range Internet access points (such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, etc.).

According to what I have read, the entire mobile backbone around the globe is built on this technology.  The ability to switch access points is crucial to our current ability to “roam” and receive date and voice seamlessly.  Again, the story is that CLYW was in such bad financial shape that many cell carriers just used the technology because it appeared that the company would be going out of business.  It might be time for them to pay up!

The court cases - CLYW has a case against a former officer and shareholder, Drago Daic and his ex-wife Cathy.  According to what I have read, Drago was brought into the company to help “perfect” the patents.  Instead, he made a power grab and has laid claim to the patents themselves.  The case has been submitted to arbitration and the hope (from Bill and message board types) is that arbitration will pass on issuing a judgement and then the company can proceed with a court case to defeat Drago and his claims to the patents.

The second case (and most important) is the case that has been filed against T-Mobile.  This is the first of a number of suits expected to be filed against other cellular carriers.  This suit is expected to set precedent that T-Mobile infringed on Calypso’s patents and, by default, the rest of the cellular industry.  The financial ramifications could be in the hundreds of millions for CLYW.

The decline and fall of CLYW

The chart illustrates the collapse of CLYW and the fact that it has treaded water for the last several years.

AISYSTEMS, INC. (ASYI)

I get calls from Investor Relations people all the time.  They all want me to know about their client, company X, that will be the next best….whatever.  They are all earnest and mean well, but I don’t always trust them.

One IR guy that I do trust brought me AI Systems, Inc. (ASYI).

He arranged for me to talk with the President of the company, Stephen Johnston, several times.  Despite Mr. Johnston’s understandable reticence to give me anything meaty, his passion for and confidence in his company came through clearly.   I shouldn’t get too excited because I have been lied to by many IR guys and company personnel.  But, I don’t think Mr. Johnston is lying.

I also think that ASYI is a company that traders should put on their radar.  It is a longer-term prospect given its chart and current situation (no rev’s, no customers and little cash).

Sounds like a deal you can’t pass up?  Right?

ASYI is a specialty software company that is targeted to the Airline Industry.  They are offering a suite of software services that “Can change the airline industry as we know it“.  Those words came out of Mr. Johnston’s mouth and I am quoting them.  Let’s look at what is behind his bravado.

Currently, airlines plan their overall schedules (route, crew, fleet and maintenance) in a process that closely resembles a Rube Goldberg machine.  For the largest airlines, it takes literally hundreds of personnel many weeks to create an overall schedule for the airline.  And, it takes weeks and weeks to create…all at enormous cost to the airline.

According to ASYI’s latest press release, “The end-to-end process (of creating the master schedule) is extremely time consuming, inflexible and often hinders an airline’s ability to achieve and sustain profitability. Utilizing current technologies to create an airline business plan and schedule has become a highly complex, expensive and often error prone process typically taking weeks to months to complete.”

If there are any deviations in the schedule (Weather, Flight Delays, Broken Planes, Icelandic Volcanoes), then the process must start again.   The Icelandic Volcano of 2010 is a perfect example of what I mean…ASYI believes their software could have saved the airlines MILLION$ during this crisis alone.  ABC News reported (read it here) that airlines lost billions ($200MM per day) while the volcano had air travel shut down.  According to Mr. Johnston, what airlines lacked was a way to quickly, efficiently and effectively change their schedules.  There was NO WAY given the current way that schedules are  constructed for airlines to change quickly.

That is what ASYI is counting on.  They have created several pieces of software (jetEngine Business Planning Software (BPS) and jetEngine O/S) that could change forever the way that airlines manage their business.

The BPS software has been released and is currently on the market.  However, no sales have been reported yet as the company is “working with several major airlines” who have expressed interest in both the BPS and O/S software.  According to the company, the biggest impediment to full adoption is the airlines’ decentralized decision making structure and the cost of the software.  The BPS software will cost airlines $1MM annually (which is a big number to swallow) and the O/S software is double that.  The O/S (due out in 2011) will also include a $0.40 per passenger fee.

However, ASYI is counting on a cost/benefit analysis that clearly shows how much money airlines will MAKE using their software.  Mr. Johnston told me of a collaborative study that was done with a major domestic airline.  The airline gave ASYI all of their schedule data for a previous year and the company then ran those numbers through their program.  According to Mr. Johnston, the use of ASYI’s software would have resulted in an increase in EBITDA of $300 MILLION dollars.

The benefits to ASYI are clear: The passenger fee alone could mean millions upon millions to ASYI since the major airlines routinely fly 100 MILLION passengers annually.  In addition, it is important to note that there are well over 1,000 passenger airlines who are potential customers for ASYI’s software and at a million dollars per installation that could mean big dollars for the company.

Sounds great, but what’s the catch?

The catch is getting someone to buy the software.  ASYI has been around for several years and seemingly had it made a few years back with the signing of a $35 Million dollar contract with AeroMexico.  They were going to be the test bed for the new software.  It looked like everything was going to turn out well for ASYI.  Then the global recession hit the airline industry hard (AeroMexico too) and ASYI lost a great deal of momentum as well as the perfect test bed for their product.

The company has adopted a bunker mentality…dumping payroll (firing their CFO and COO recently) and keeping operations “lean and mean”.

The chart isn’t much help

With a bloated capital structure (over 90 Million shares in the float), I am curious how the company will generate trader interest.  They have done some promotion in the past, but that didn’t seem to lift the stock for very long.  I have a feeling that it will be news that drives this stock.  If they are able to start closing some customers in the near term, they might be able to reach their goal of being cash flow positive by 3Q 2011.

Bottom Line:

If I had a “Top Stocks for the New Millennium” list, I would put ASYI on it.  It is not a great stock to trade now (and that is management’s fault for large part), but the stock is all about the future.  I would like to see management and their investment bankers work the price down and tighten up the bid/ask spread.  Very few traders want to buy a software company with a market cap of $66MM that has no clients, no revenues and little cash in the bank.

HOWEVER, I am going to watch ASYI because I think it has real “home-run potential” .  I will watch with interest to see if the company can truly “revolutionize the airline industry”.

I will keep you posted.

Here is what I am looking at for entry/exit points (There is a little bit of fantasy about these numbers since ASYI doesn’t trade predictably yet)

Last Close:              $0.49

Buy Opinion:          $0.20 - $0.30

Short Term Sell:    $0.75

Long Term Sell:     $1.50

Good Luck and Great Trading,

China Nepstar Chain Drugstore Ltd. (NPD)

Good morning!

It seems lately that China Nepstar Chain Drugstore Ltd. (NPD) had an anchor around its neck.  The stock has been on a persistent decline for well over a month fueled by some disappointing financial news.  It is a NYSE stock that seems intent on becoming a penny stock

NPD has been its own worst enemy posting disappointing results for the first Q on expansion costs, increased expenses and a management shakeup, etc…

BUT, this is a company that has $1.58 in cash,  great debt and liquidity ratios and has the clout of having over 2,500 stores in its Mainland China drugstore empire .

Eventually buyers get exhausted….and, that may be what has happened with NPD.

Here is the chart for NPD!

The question you have to ask yourself “Is this rally real?”.  It might be….or it might fall back.  If the stock falls back to $3.00 again and THEN climbs, popular consensus is that is when to really jump in.  That is confirmation of the trend being broken and a great buying signal.

I would watch NPD.  The stock is down now, but it won’t be forever.  I expect bigger and better things from NPD….maybe soon.

Good luck and GREAT trading,

AEN, ACTC, ANX

Good Morning Traders!

I have three quick charts for you to look at this morning on three penny stock biotech plays.  ACTC and ANX have charts that look like they are definitely on the move (up, that is) and the third AEN might be following them.

Advanced Cell Technology Inc. (ACTC.OB)

Adventrx Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (ANX)

Adeona Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (AEN)

Three stocks that you should get to know this morning.  They are all typical biotech plays with lousy balance sheets, marginal revenues and a great deal of uncertainty about their drugs. Any news could send them flying (in either direction).  Trade carefully, but all three might have some gains in them near term imo.

Be sure and sign up for my HOT penny stock alerts. I do all of the hard work to give you trading ideas that you can make money on.  My track record has been quite impressive. sign up here

Good luck and good trading,

FROI, NTMG, TADF, VASO, EXPU, GNOLF, CBIS, ECOB, GLER, LMCO

Fero Industries Inc (OTC: FROI) is up 6.52% to $0.245 on above-average volume. The company has announced that it has retained key personnel to assist in the due diligence and the acquisition of Sucanon® from Gvest. (OTC:FROI), (FROI)

While up early, FROI closed the day down 28%.  FROI has no revenues, no assets and, without the Sucanon acquisition closing, no reason to care.

The Sucanon acquisition sounds promising, but the PR was vague as to the revenues for the acquisition and the cost to FROI.

NT Mining Corp. (PINK: NTMG) is up 13.27% $0.350 on a strong volume of 4.85 million shares. On Friday, the company reported that it has hired former Terra Mining Ltd. employee and engineer Hank Sanche as a consultant to the company. (PINK:NTMG), (NTMG)

Tactical Air Defense Services Inc. (OTC: TADF) is up 10.00% to $0.0176 on a strong volume of 63.64 million shares. (OTC:TADF), (TADF)

TADF is a stock that looks like it will be in play a lot over the weeks and months to come.  The stock offers a very intriguing story, but the question is how will that translate to revenues and profits.

I would continue to watch it going forward for opportunities to get back in.

Vasomedical Inc. (OTC: VASO) is up 87.33% to $0.281. The company has announced that its subsidiary, Vaso Healthcare, has signed a sales representative agreement with GE Healthcare. (OTC:VASO), (VASO)

VASO might have several days run in it with such good news.  Lost in the PR is the fact that VASO raised $5 MM in funding to finance this venture.  This could make (or break) the company.

Expert Group Inc. (OTC: EXPU) is down 11.11% to $0.0160 on above-average volume of 4.03 million shares. (OTC:EXPU), (EXPU)

Genoil Inc. (ADR) (OTC: GNOLF) is up 43.48% to $0.165. The company has announced updates on its sand decontamination & oil water separation technologies. (OTC:GNOLF), (GNOLF)

Cannabis Science Inc. (OTC: CBIS) is up 46.15% to $0.190. The company has announced that it has acquired 100% of a private company with two revenue producing operations. (OTC:CBIS), (CBIS)

EcoBlu Products Inc. (OTC: ECOB) is up 64.58% to $0.395 on above-average volume of 6.54 million shares. (OTC:ECOB), (ECOB)

Global Earth Energy Inc. (OTC: GLER) is up 50.00% to $0.0600 following the news that it has secured up to $10 million in equity financing. (OTC:GLER), (GLER)

Li-ion Motors Corp. (OTC: LMCO) is up 20.22% to $2.14. The company has announced that it will unveil its long awaited Inizio Supercar at an open house September 15, 2010. (OTC:LMCO), (LMCO)

American Oriental Bioengineering (AOB) has been one of my favorite trades for almost the last 10 years.  I have traded in and out of it several times, blogged it twice for Investor Soup and have followed it faithfully.  Now, might be a good time to put AOB back on the radar screen.

AOB stinks right now.  It has been on a prolonged downtrend that shows no sign of abating.  Or does it?

Here is the chart, so you can see for yourself:

Is penny stock land next for AOB? Hardly!

AOB, despite not impressing lately with its Q over Q financial results, is still a very strong company.  The company has a stockpile of cash, manageable debt loads, great debt coverage ratios.  It has profitable operations and sales are growing.  There was some operating and net income margin erosion, but nothing fatal.

With AOB continuing to make new lows, the strong selling going on, now is not the time to jump in (unless you really believe in AOB long term).  But, the time is coming (and I think it will be soon) that AOB will reverse trend.    AOB has a history of volatility.   It has been down before and will be down again, but right now I am looking for it to go back up.

Good luck and good trading,

IRE, STD, BCS, DF, BAC, C

I have a lot of experience with banks. As a bank auditor in my early 20’s, I got to know banks very well.  I even worked for Bank of America for a few years (in their venture capital subsidiary).

All of this knowledge doesn’t really help me with my analysis of banks.  Banks have been extraordinarily cyclical lately and even with the overall rebound in the sector, the ‘Sword of Damocles’ still hangs over their heads.  It will only take the government to pull out of the mortgage market to cause the next crash…or some other piece of bad economic news.

But, here are some bank in the news.  These banks are all on the bounce from an prolonged downtrend:

Bank of Ireland (ADR) (NYSE: IRE) is up 18.00% to $8.72. The company has said that it will reduce the size of its planned rights issue by around 161 million euros to 1.72 billion euros after debt swap, MarketWatch reported. (NYSE:IRE), ($IRE)

Look at the chart and you will see that IRE has some real potential.  The oscillators (MACD and Stochastics) are just starting to turn and could help fuel a rally.

Stock Charts Link for IRE

Banco Santander S.A. (ADR) (NYSE: STD) is up 23.90% to $12.18 on above-average volume. (NYSE:STD), ($STD)

You may have missed the start of STD’s rally, but it coud have legs.  Look at this chart.

Stock Charts Link for STD

Barclays PLC (ADR) (NYSE: BCS) is up18.60% to $19.70. The company is planning to split and sell off part of University Partnerships Programme, The Financial Times reported. (NYSE:STD), ($STD)

These charts all look eerily familiar.  These banks (including BCS) have been on a strong downtrend…not any more.  The bank sector just got a shot in the arm.

Stock Charts Link for BCS

Bank of America Corp. (NYSE: BAC) is up 6.98% to $17.31. Bank of America, Citigroup will likely take charge for U.K. bonus tax, American Banking News reported. (NYSE:BAC), ($BAC)

BAC is a juggernaut.  This is another one that was on a prolonged decline and snapped back.

Stock Chart Link for BAC

Citigroup Inc. (NYSE: C) is up 6.12% to $4.25. The company on Friday said it will purchase $535.9 million worth of notes as part of a previously announced tender offer, American Banking News reported. (NYSE:C), ($C)

Citibank is still the laggard in the sector

Stock Chart Link for C

Washington Mutual, Inc. (Pink:  WAMUQ) is also up to a whopping 14 cents!  I get yelled at all the time with WAMUQ, but it has so many problems.  I am hopeful, but not convinced with WAMUQ.

CCTR is a mess.  It has been up and down and is subject to a great deal of hype.  It actually is a good company with revenues but it has been the traders’ plaything and is not to be trusted.

CCTR has come down to a very attractive level.  Watch it to see if it bounces off the next support level.

Cytta Corp. (OTC: CYCA) is down 3.45% to $0.0028 on a high volume of 43.78 million shares. (OTC:CYCA), ($CYCA)

Deltathree Inc. (OTC: DDDC) is down 9.11% to $0.199 following its first quarter results. (OTC:DDDC), ($DDDC)

Legend International Holdings Inc. (OTC: LGDI) is down 0.93% to $1.07. The company has announced that it has set a record date of June 4, 2010 for entitlements for the spin out of its diamond, gold and base metal interests. (OTC:LGDI), ($LGDI)

I really like LGDI.  I have for quite some time.  I have done both an alert on LGDI and blogged it and both times it delivered some solid gains.   LGDI is still a exploration company, but it is one of the best financed and best run companies in the mining sector.

LGDI may be down now, but it will not be down long.
