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.
Last Close: $0.02
Buy Opinion: around $0.02 to $0.03
Short Term Sell: $0.05 to $0.10
Long Term Sell: $0.25 and above (If -and that is a big If – CLYW takes off, it is always recommend to sell enough to cover your initial investment and some profit and “play with the house’s money” to see how high CLYW could go)
Good Luck and Great Trading,

This is a quick update on a stock that I have covered frequently over the past few months: Jade Art Group, Inc. (JADA)
It looks like JADA could be in play today!
Yesterday, the stock saw a massive selloff based upon uninformed traders who saw that JADA’s revenues dropped by 50% over the previous quarter. The selloff was completely reasonable given the news of the drop. However, the press release issued by the company was interesting in the way it was presented. The press release only talked about how the current 2nd Q was such an improvement over the previous year’s Q:
BUT (and that is a big but)….Revenues dropped over 50% from the previous fiscal quarter. It appears, from looking at historical financials, that their business is cyclical. Most traders seem not to be aware of that.
Here is the chart:
Yesterday’s big selloff is a great buying opportunity imo! This is a great company that is steadily increasing EPS…margins are good, cash in increasing. Cyclical companies get punished for putting out numbers like these for the second Q, but savvy investors take advantage.
The knife might fall further for today, but I believe that you will see JADA make a strong recovery soon. Watch it closely for any turn.

I don’t cover sub-penny stocks very often, but one came across my radar that I want to share with you.: Santeon Group, Inc. (UBCI.OB)
Most sub-penny’s started out as penny’s or better, but sink down into the depths of the sub-penny market…most never to re-appear. UBCI is reversing the process.
This is one of those plays where a new company has been put into an old shell. This one is called Santeon Group. The old shell, UBroadcast, Inc., was reversed into only in June of this year.
The company still has the old UBroadcast ticker (and derives some incremental income from that business), but the star of the show is Santeon Group. Santeon has been in business for over 10 years providing business process management software for the healthcare industry. (click here for website)
In it’s last fiscal year, Santeon only booked $3.6 MM in sales…not that impressive for a 10-yr. old company. However, Santeon is betting the farm of growth. Their PR’s make all sorts of references to strong revenue gains in 2011 and 2012. Santeon is supposedly debt-free and cash flow positive. I will look with interest upon the next 10-Q to see just how strong Santeon is.
Since then there has been a steady flood of press releases about the progress that Santeon Group is making in building sales posting sales with some very recognizable names in industry: BP, O2, IBM, Microsoft, etc…
The company is also growing by addition with the purchase of two other software companies, Vu Media and X2A Consulting, LLC. None of these additions are headline stuff, but the company has laid out a strong plan for acquisitions that could help the company grow quickly.
Let’s take a look at the chart
I get the impression from looking at the chart that UBCI is just “idling” at current levels and that it won’t be a sub-penny for very long. The chart gives me the impression that it is near the bottom of the range for UBCI and that the next move will be up. You can play UBCI for the short-term move or if the news it puts out is strong enough, then hold for the long term.
Bottom Line: UBCI is a sub-penny play that might be worth looking in to. Buying 20,000 shares would cost you the equivalent of a decent dinner for two, but the upside is a great deal better than a night out.
From my research on the company, I get a strong feeling they will deliver on what they are promising. I expect they will be issuing a steady stream of PR’s about clients landed, revenue growth, new acquisitions, etc. I just hope they have some substantive news that traders are actually interested in.
The “fly in the ointment” is that somewhere down the road, UBCI will have to do a reverse split. As with most penny and sub-penny stocks, stock is better than cash. Every vendor gets paid in stock, officers are paid in stock, acquisitions are done in stock….all that stock has left UBCI with a bloated capital structure that will demand a reverse split before a year has passed.
Here is what I am looking at for entry/exit points

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)

Of course, I meant “LEGAL” drugs……The china pharmaceutical industry is an exciting sector with a great deal of competition and no true national chains. The market is, in fact, highly fragmented and while NPD has over 2,500 stores, it owns only around 1% of the overall market.
These stocks are three of the most popular ones and they have been penny stock darlings for quite some time. They are all volatile stocks that could be in play at any time based upon news or general China sentiment
China Nepstar Chain Drugstore Ltd. (NPD)
An earnings release this week could make things interesting for NPD. It is scheduled for August 11th…this Wednesday. The stock has been on a flatline for the past several months forming a durable base at around $3. The bollinger bands have formed a tight convergence around the stock which could portend some move off this base. Here is the chart, so you can see what I mean.
NPD is phenomenally profitable and has a very strong balance sheet. Debt is classified as short-term debt and is significant ($68 Million), but cash ($200MM) and other debt-coverage ratios make the high debt a non-factor.
China Jo Jo Drugstores, Inc. (CJJD)
The story for CJJD is all about growth. They are the smallest of the three companies profiled today and on the largest growth curve, but growth is easier when you are going from 29 stores (a/s March 2010) to 60 (projected by March 2011). Having said that, CJJD is also showing (unaudited) income statement numbers that are impressive….55 MIllion revenues for ye 3/31/10 with 12.7 EBITDA. Balance sheet is not as strong, but there are no big concerns.
China Yongxin Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (CYXN)
CYXN is a bit different from the other two because of its range of services and products…in addition to running its 79 retail stores (a/o 12/31/09), they are also heavily involved in pharmaceutical distribution as well as selling their own line of herbal remedies and medicines. Their unaudited numbers are good, too. Not as good as the other two, but still respectable. For the y/e 12-31-09, the company booked $47 million top line and showed EBITDA of $7.7 million.
I would recommend staying away from CYXN until the volume issue is resolved (I have calls out to the IR firm) to try and get some details on their recent trading patterns. CJJD is a potential short to me, but on such low volume, any position is a HUGE risk. NPD has earnings coming out this week. There has been no runup to earnings, so I can’t even begin to call how this will trade on Wednesday. I like NPD, personally, but will not be trading it until I know more.
Good Luck and Great Trading,

A few weeks back, I came across Global Cash Access Holdings, Inc. (GCA) on one of my trips around the web, researched it, liked it….and then discarded it. The stock was in a serious tailspin and I never like “falling-knife” stocks. We all know those don’t usually end well.
But, it appears that the stock may have put in a bottom and the indicators are giving some credence to a rally. It is a stock that given a longer time horizon might make for a good trade. The stock is strong financially and after the hysteria about losing a big customer subsides, GCA could come back strong.
GCA (website) is a leading provider of cash access products and related services to over 1,100 casinos and other gaming properties in the United States, Europe, Canada, the Caribbean, Central America and Asia. GCA’s products and services provide gaming patrons access to cash through a variety of methods, including ATM cash withdrawals, point-of-sale debit card transactions, credit card cash advances, check verification and warranty services, and Western Union money transfers.
Why do I hate GCA? The few times I have been to a casino and needed extra cash, the exorbitant fees that companies like GCA charge tick me off. I know they have to “make a buck”, but am too cheap to want to pay those fees. However, that doesn’t stop them from making huge bucks from those fees to millions of willing customers.
The Fundamentals
GCA has strong fundamentals and that gives me confidence they have the ability to weather this downturn in their stock. While L-T debt is high ($249MM), cash position and receivables are strong. The company has good ratios and debt coverage is strong. Cash flow continues to be strong.
The company is strongly profitable (although losing Harrah’s Casino at 14% of their overall business will hurt going forward). Sales have plateaued during these tough economic times…which in some ways is a coup for the company. They have maintained strong sales, margins and profitability during some difficult economic times.
The Chart
The Wild Card
Earnings are scheduled to be released Wednesday, August 4th. I have read the analyst’s estimates and there appears to be no trepidation on the part of analysts. We will see once earnings are released. I have made the mistake of buying in anticipation of earnings and I don’t want you to make the same mistake. We will see what happens once earnings are released.

I blogged JADA a few months back and hit the nail on the head with my call. The chart looked to me to be setting itself up for a move and I was right. The stock delivered almost a 50% gain over a week’s time.
I was very pleased with myself and with JADE ART GROUP INC (JADA.OB). I think the time is right to take another look at JADA.
Jade Art Group Inc. is a seller and distributor in China of raw jade, which has uses ranging from decorative construction material for both the commercial and residential markets to high-end jewelry.
The stock itself is currently trading at around $0.36 and its prices have swung from a 52-wk. low of $0.15 to a high of $1.09. The stock itself is not having a good 2010 being down 45% for the year and 67% from its April 5th high of $1.09.
I am not seeing a near-term pop with JADA due to any technical analysis. In fact, the momentum (and volume) has plateaued. But, that does not mean that JADA is not a good trade.
The chart is showing that JADA is trading near the 2010 base of around 35 cents. This is the base that the stock used in its April move and could with its next move.
I am willing to wait around to let JADA be rediscovered. The company is in strong financial condition with a strong balance sheet and profitable operations. In fact, as of March 31, 2010, Jade Art Group had cash and cash equivalents of $5.7 million, up from $147,392 as of December 31, 2009. Current assets and current liabilities as of March 31, 2010, were $11.7 million and $3.2 million, respectively, yielding working capital of $8.5 million.
JADA has made it known they are looking to diversify (vertically within the Jade business and beyond) and with strong financials and strong balance sheet, they could easily snap up another company. All it is going to take for JADA to fly again is the next earning release, news of an acquisition, traders rediscovering it, etc….
The risks are small, but it is good to be aware of them. JADA has only one source for its Jade (albeit on a 50-yr. exclusive contract) and a limited number of customers (under 10). Any political upheavals, market glut, government intervention (it is China after all) could negatively impact the stock….I don’t see that happening however.
I think I will be right on JADA again!

Today’s penny stock pharma pick is Provectus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (PVCT.OB). It is another one of those pharma plays that has what I look for in a pharma company:
1. Promising Drug Candidates
2. Cash in the bank
3. Manageable debt
4. Beaten down chart
PVCT, a development-stage pharmaceutical company, through its subsidiaries, engages in developing, licensing, and marketing over-the-counter (OTC) products, prescription drugs, and medical device systems in the fields of dermatology and oncology. Provectus Pharmaceuticals has developed various intellectual properties and technologies in the areas of imaging, medical devices, and biotechnology. The company was founded in 2002 and is based in Knoxville, Tennessee. source: Yahoo! Finance
PVCT has two major drug candidates; PV-10 which is a therapy for metastatic melanoma and other cancers and PH-10 which is a topical treatment for a wide range skin conditions (psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, actinic keratosis, and severe acne). The company also is designing a suite of medical device systems include therapeutic and cosmetic lasers for cosmetic treatments, such as reduction of wrinkles and elimination of spider veins, and other cosmetic blemishes; and photoactivation of PH-10 other prescription drugs and non-surgical destruction of certain skin cancers
Rather than regurgitate/update how the company is doing, I will direct you to their latest PR that updates shareholders on the company’s progress (sounds positive, by the way) – click here for link.
What is important to know is that PVCT has the financial wherewithal to make it through this next round of clinical trials. The company has come out and said they have “ample cash” and with no debt, I think that PVCT might be a good position trade (several months probably).
Insiders own almost 17% of the company, but they haven’t attracted much institutional interest. Their latest PR (linked above) intimates that could change.
Let’s take a peek at the chart:
According to the company, they are planning a major announcement in conjunction with their Australian trials at Melanoma 2010 Conference in Sydney, Australia, November 4-7, 2010. Good news there could make this stock jump. In fact, any news could make this stock jump. My crystal ball is telling me to expect good news, but there are no guarantees.
Here is what I am looking at for entry/exit points
Last Close: $1.05
Buy Opinion: $.90 – $1.15
Short Term Sell: $1.45 (45% gain from $1 purchase price)
Long Term Sell: $2.00+

At $1.00, BSDM is trading near the bottom of its 52-week range. The chart is telling me that BSDM might be ripe for a rally (or possibly a full trend reversal).
I look at this penny stock’s chart and see several things that lead me to believe that. So, let’s start with the chart!
I look at a company whose stock has been in a decline for several months, is hitting a 52-week low with a bearish MACD and oversold stochastics…and I think this is a good deal? I must be out of my mind.
I’m not…despite rumours to the contrary. BSDM is a financially strong company (more on that later) that, based upon chart alone, could be ready to rally. I am looking at recent chart candles and am seeing the setup for a rally. Take yesterday’s “Doji” for instance.
Stockcharts.com says that Doji’s are “After a decline, or long black candlestick, a doji signals that selling pressure is starting to diminish. Doji indicate that the forces of supply and demand are becoming more evenly matched and a change in trend may be near. Doji alone are not enough to mark a reversal and further confirmation may be warranted.
I would expect to sellers to try and hit BSDM a few more times, but I think buyers will win the day.
BSDM also has a strong balance sheet going for it. It has over $7 Million in cash, no debt and strong ratios. The company can’t seem to turn the corner on profits recently, however. The losses are not significant enough to cause any going concern issues. This strong balance sheet gives BSDM time to “right the ship”.
I would not be surprised if BSDM didn’t get bought out. I have nothing concrete about that….just a hunch. Cash-rich, a smaller player in a larger market, mature products…etc, etc…
Have a great day in the market,

CYCC is potentially a big winner for 2010. Its line of oncology and hematology drugs have been much in the news lately and are expected to have even bigger news (Clinical trial-type news) before year-end.
The stock is off over 50% from its 2010 high as investor fervor has subsided from several promising announcments earlier in the year.
However, CYCC might be a good penny stock/small cap company to invest in a mid-to-longterm trade.
Cyclacel’s strategy is to build a diversified biopharmaceutical business focused in hematology and oncology based on a portfolio of commercial products and a development pipeline of novel drug candidates. source: YahooFinance.com
The news has been mostly good:
From a fundamental standpoint, CYCC is strong. They have a decent balance sheet with no debt and they have shown an ability to raise capital whenever they need or want to. Which is all the time! CYCC is burning through a tremendous amount of cash every quarter and needs to “feed from the public trough” constantly. They have no meaningful revenues and must fund operations solely off of their balance sheet. If they receive any negative news, that ability to raise cash could be compromised.
From a technical standpoint, it appears that CYCC has stabilized at between $1.50 and $2.00. The stock is in a small uptrend, but the indicators are not confirming that trend in any significant fashion.
Having said that….the 7 month chart shows a great deal of volatility that can be played if you watch the stock closely.
CYCC has a stable of drugs that have garnered mostly positive reviews. Their ability to raise capital whenever they want to speaks to the confidence that institutional investors have in the company (despite being dilutive to current shareholders, it is “all good”). In fact, over 20% of the company is held by institutions. Insider ownership is only 5%, but I would expect a low number given how many rounds of financing CYCC goes through annually.
Bottom Line: CYCC is a worthy candidate imo. CYCC is on traders and investors radar screen and they are just looking for that next piece of good news to start a buying frenzy again. CYCC will try and give them that good news before year end.
Here is what I am looking at for entry/exit points
Last Close: $1.65
Buy Opinion: $1.50 to 1.75 (if the price drops below $1.50, wait and see if it recovers)
Short Term Sell: around $2.50
Long Term Sell: $4.00+
Good Luck and Great Trading,
Jeffrey Dean

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,
Jeffrey Dean, Senior Editor

Not much play here imo. The company had good news yesterday (dilutive to shareholders, though)
Belltower Entertainment Corp. (OTC: BTOW) is down 5.00% to $0.190 on heavy volume of 5.93 million shares. The company has recently entered into a commercial direct response marketing production, with the proposed construction of a facility in Orlando, Florida. (OTC:BTOW), (BTOW)
The pump is over with this one. I expect to see it fall in the near term and it may recover because this type of company is subject to pump and hype.

This stock is deserving of a closer look. They have no cash and little revenues, but they have a great story. With only 115MM shares outstanding, any good news could send this stock flying again. They will have to raise money (which will be dilutive), but I would watch this company to see if they can realize their potential.

Good Monday, everyone!
It was a great weekend, but I am looking forward to getting back into the markets with great penny stock picks.
The following is a list of Penny Stocks that were in the news on Friday. Some were up, some were down. The question is “What will happen this week”. I think that several are worth taking a look at.
Emisphere Technologies Inc. (OTC: EMIS) is up 7.26% to $3.40. The company has announced an expanded collaboration agreement with Novartis, and the cancellation of its convertible promissory note. (OTC:EMIS), (EMIS)
Impressive run, but I think that it is time for EMIS to come back to earth. Oversold stochastics (and RSI) are telling me that the run could be ending soon.
Strategic Rare Earth Metals Inc. (OTC: SREH) is down 1.00% to $0.0298. The company has said it expanding the selection of cutting-edge iPhone application sales launching on July 1. (OTC:SREH), (SREH)
The parade is over already for SREH. This is a penny stock stinker….be careful with this one.
Novo Energies Corp. (OTC: NVNC) is up 30.00% to $0.130 following today’s announcement of a collaboration agreement with Novo Energies International Ltd. (OTC:NVNC), (NVNC)
Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. (OTC: LBSR) is down 37.04% to $0.0017 following the announcement that it has received a notification from the Collateral Agent of Default. (OTC:LBSR), (LBSR)
GoldSpring Inc. (OTC: GSPG) is down 2.86% to $0.0068. The company has said that it has received the FINRA approval for its reverse stock split. (OTC:GSPG), (GSPG)
Apollo Medical Holdings Inc. (OTC: AMEH) is down 11.25% to $0.0710 following the announcement of a new hospital contract at Monterey Park Hospital. (OTC:AMEH), (AMEH)
I’ll bet AMEH management are a little ticked off. They announce great news (new contract) and their stock falls even more. AMEH might be a good company to get to know. They have a boring, but steady business of providing professional management and services to hospitals. They are almost profitable Q over Q and with the new healthcare bill passing, could grow even bigger.
They have only 27 Million shares o/s and a 2 Million market cap. Any bottom line improvements could make a strong impact on the shares.
Vivakor inc (OTC: VIVK) is up 0.95% to $0.0320. The company has announced that it has reduced its long and short term debt by an additional $510,000 by converting those debts to shares of common stock. (OTC:VIVK), (VIVK)
Disclosure: I own shares in VIVK
VIVK was a stock that I was high on last year. It was a small company with a seemingly bright future. However, it has yet to deliver on its promise. I like their array of products but, other than a pump by Pennystockchaser.com, they have disappointed.
It appears that VIVK is a real company and they are moving the company forward. I am holding my shares in VIVK and may add to them. I still believe in the company long term. They just have to do a better job getting the market to care about what they are doing.
Sector 10 Inc. (OTC: SECI) is up 14.29% to $0.0800. The company has announced the upcoming release of the PLX-3D integration software package and its integrated components as an easy to use mobile application for the iPhone and iPad. (OTC:SECI), (SECI)
SECI is one of my picks for 2010. It has enormous potential and a great story. The stock has been one of my alerts twice in the past and both times it performed extremely well. It is on an uptrend now and it might be a good time to get to know the company.
Cord Blood America Inc. (OTC: CBAI) is down 4.29% to $0.0067. The company has announced an early start to its groundbreaking ‘Afford-A-Cord’ program, which cuts the initial cost of storing umbilical cord blood stem cells from $2075 to $495 plus medical courier service. (OTC:CBAI), (CBAI)
Goldrich Mining Co. (OTC: GRMC) is down 3.33% to $0.290. The company has announced preparations for commercial gold production and exploratory drilling at its Chandalar property. (OTC:GRMC), (GRMC)
Have a great day in the market!

Sector 10 Inc. (OTC: SECI) is up 2.22% to $0.0920 on above-average volume. (OTC:SECI), (SECI)
I love SECI. I have alerted members to SECI on two separate occasions with excellent results. The best move was a 170% move.
SECI, the company, is very interesting. They have a homeland security product that could come in very handy in an emergency. They have a huge potential market (office buildings, government buildings, fire and rescue, etc….). Their problem is adoption. Who is going to be the one to install their life-saving first?
Angel Acquisition Corp. (OTC: AGEL) $0.0002 – The company has announced that it has entered into joint venture discussions with one of the nation’s premier technology consultancies. (OTC:AGEL), (AGEL)
Silver America Inc. (OTC: SILA) is up 2.61% to $1.18 following the announcement that its board has approved the second phase of its strategic field program at its 698.91 acre Guadalupe Property in Mexico. (OTC:SILA), (SILA)
I like SILA. I think the stock has got some great potential. It was a good gainer for my members in early May and now is in play again. After a strong pullback, the indicators are pointing towards some future gains.
Encounter Technologies Inc. (OTC: ENTI) is up 3.92% to $0.0053. The company is launching its flagship site MusicMatrix.com today at 8:00pm EDT. (OTC:ENTI), (ENTI)
Deltron Inc. (NDA) (OTC: DTRO) is up 66.67% to $0.0400 on above-average volume. The company has announced updates to its corporate overview and continued growth at its wholly owned subsidiaries. (OTC:DTRO), (DTRO)
CTD Holdings Inc. (OTC: CTDH) is up 11.11% to $0.100 following the announcement that its Trappsol Cyclo has been awarded orphan drug status for the treatment of Niemann Pick Type C (NPC) disease by the U.S. FDA . (CHORI). (OTC:CTDH), (CTDH)
And, the market took back all of CTDH’s gains today. The stock is down 27% in early trading today on only 800 shares. The market is obviously not too impressed with CTDH, but I think that this dip might be a buying opportunity.
The company is small and none of its drug portfolio has “blockbuster” written on it. Their best avenue for shareholders is to be bought out by a larger company and everyone cashes out at a gain. Right now, CTDH is having great trouble catching the attention of traders.
Nutra Pharma Corp. (OTC: NPHC) is up 13.79% to $0.330. The company has announced that it has partnered with Henry Schein for distribution of its Nyloxin-branded pain relievers in the United States. (OTC:NPHC), (NPHC)
Li-ion Motors Corp (OTC: LMCO) is up 7.37% to $2.04. The company has announced that it has agreed to license the marketing and manufacturing of its technology for Canada to a Canadian company. (OTC:LMCO), (LMCO)
LMCO continues to impress me. They are on a mission to emerge from concept to full production…and, I am not betting against them. They are getting good pub from the X-Prize success and they have some really cool cars that are road-ready.
They have many hurdles to overcome financially and operationally, but as a stock, LMCO has been a big winner for my members.
Digital Development Partners Inc. (OTC: DGDM) is down 25.00% to $0.300. The company has announced that it has received an order for 100,000 EFT-PDA-Smart Phones with Wi-Fi and VoIP capabilities. (OTC:DGDM), (DGDM)

I have a list of companies that might be worth taking a look at today. Since, I am mainly a penny stock site, I have put the lower-priced issues at the top and the others below. My comments are highlighted and I have included charts (where appropriate)
Don’t forget to sign up for my penny stock alert emails. I send out my analysis on stocks that are about to move. So much of a trader’s time is spent trying to find stocks that move and I “put them on a plate for you”. My track record is impressive and I love helping you make profits.

My penny stocks:
Mediacom Communications Corp. (NASDAQ: MCCC) is up 15.20% to $6.14. The company has announced that it has received a going private proposal at $6 per share from its CEO. (NASDAQ:MCCC), (MCCC)
Not much to do here. With a $6 buyout bid from a guy who already owns 87% of the company, it seems like there is no play here. If the deal craters, then look for a crash. With the company’s legal problems, however, that could happen.
Allied Irish Banks plc. (ADR) (NYSE: AIB) is down 3.03% to $2.56. Societe Generale has upgraded Allied Irish Banks to “Buy” from “Hold,” and raised its target price to €1.60 from €1.35. (NYSE:AIB), (AIB)
AIB was one of April’s stock success stories and it has made a very attractive pullback. With Societe Generale’s upgrade, you would expect the stock to spike. Maybe nobody cares about Societe! Whatever the reason….I think that you should watch AIB closely.
Everything else:
Covidien plc (NYSE: COV) is down 2.36% to $41.39 following the company’s announcement to buy ev3 (NASDAQ: EVVV) for $2.6 billion. (NYSE:COV), (COV)
Ryanair Holdings plc (ADR) (NASDAQ: RYAAY) is up 7.14% to $25.22. The company is planning a special dividend for October 2010. (NASDAQ:RYAAY), (RYAAY)
Hewlett-Packard Company (NYSE: HPQ) is up 0.13% to $46.07. The company has said it will invest $1 billion in the next generation of its Enterprises Services business and will cut 9,000 jobs over a multiyear period. (NYSE:HPQ), (HPQ)
Halliburton Company (NYSE: HAL) is down 12.16% to $21.81 after removal from Goldman Sachs conviction buy list. (NYSE:HAL), (HAL)
Caterpillar Inc. (NYSE: CAT) is down 0.05% to $60.73. Caterpillar’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Progress Rail Services, has agreed to purchase Electro-Motive Diesel (EMD) for $820 million in cash, expanding its presence in the global rail industry. (NYSE:CAT), (CAT)
AOL Inc. (NYSE: AOL) is up 1.75% to $20.99. The company was raised to Buy from Hold at Benchmark Co., with price target set at $25. (NYSE:AOL), (AOL)
Genzyme Corp. (NASDAQ: GENZ) is up 0.99% to $49.13 following an upgrade from J.P. Morgan. (NASDAQ:GENZ), (GENZ)
RadioShack Corp. (NYSE: RSH) is up 4.75% to $21.41. Private equity firm Blackstone has emerged as a leading bidder for RadioShack, the New York Post reported, citing unnamed people familiar with the matter. (NYSE:RSH), (RSH)

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.
