RARS shares might become hot soon LOL (sooner or later they will i guess)
I would think he'll at least try to max the return out since the disclosure is stating that he's paying almost 1.5M for the dumpage of his holdings.
At least the Story seems to be good, big Names involved like Intel, US Army, GE and many many more... as a guess i would say they try to go for 1.50's to 2$.
Can't wait for the Target Mails ~8-10$'s.
$RACK 1.5M Promo and >1.8M shares will be dumped...
Paradigm Capital Holdings has agreed to pay Global Marketing Media $1,490,000 for the campaign commencing on or about April 23, 2012 and running for approximately six months.

Veltex Corporation(VLXC) Awarded $102 Million by US District Federal Court
CHICAGO, March 21, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Veltex Corporation-- OTC Markets symbol (VLXC)
A United States District Court in California has handed down one of the largest awards ever in the Central District of California in favor of Veltex Corporation, ("Veltex") a Chicago-based holding corporation.
On March 10, 2010, Veltex's attorneys filed a 96 page federal complaint on behalf of Veltex Corporation in the United States District Court, Central District of California (Western Division - Los Angeles) entitled, Veltex Corporation vs. Javeed Azziz Matin et al, case number 2:10-cv-01746-ABC-PJW. That case alleged damages from 22 individual and corporate defendants. The litigation which has been followed closely by legal scholars outlined a massive fraudulent conveyance and transfer count wherein millions of dollars of corporate assets were stolen by the defendants.
Chief US District Court Judge Audrey B. Collins ruled in favor of Veltex and against certain defendants directing the corporation to file a proposed final Order, which has been done. The corporation expects the Court to sign the final order on or before April 1, 2012.
The amount of the award exceeded $102 million dollars in which $100,078,621 in fraudulent conveyance and transfer damages to the corporation was found. The Court further ordered $793,442.86 in prejudgment interest to be paid to Veltex. The Court also ordered $2,005,172.42 in attorney's fees along with cost and expenses of $3,859.95 bringing the total amount of the award to $102,881,096.23. The award will also carry post judgment interest annually as calculated by Federal rules.
Certain other defendants have settled with Veltex under strict confidential settlement agreements.
Veltex Chairman R. Preston Roberts, who was present in the courtroom when the ruling came down, stated: "The shareholders of Veltex can feel confident that this board will be working diligently to retrieve from this award every nickel, including interest, in any form available to us. This is a major development for Veltex and it's shareholders. The Board will be meeting post haste to develop a plan of action to maximize this asset on our balance sheet. I could not be more pleased with the efforts put forth by our consultants and attorneys in this stage of our asset recovery plan."
Veltex had retained the prestigious law firm of Blecher & Collins PC. Lead attorneys Maxwell M. Blecher, Maryann R. Marzano and Kristen M. Peters headed up the legal team. Merle L. Royce of the Law Firm of Merle L. Royce was Chicago counsel in the matter.
Blecher & Collins PC is recognized as one of the premier complex business litigation law firms in the country. Founded by Maxwell M.

It's BDPS incl all sister sites as well, read here:
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=73444569
Somebody in the Family
must have a huge stake in this CO or why would they do a pick for free?
BDPS Emails are hitting !!No Compensation!!
No time to waste - immediately do your research on Premier Beverage Group
Corp. (PBGC)!
I'm so excited about this company and let me tell you why…
First off, what exactly does PBGC do?
They develop, market, and distribute functional beverage brands through its
wholly owned subsidiaries, OSO Beverages and Captive Brands.
Functional beverages, which include energy drinks, energy shots, and
vitamin enhanced waters, have expanded substantially in the last 5 years
and disrupted the beverage landscape formerly dominated by soft drinks.
The functional beverage category has uncovered a previously unexposed
consumer need that traditional beverages did not address. We believe these
beverages are quickly becoming the drink of choice for the younger
generation, having matured from “fad” status into the mainstream market.
Think about it and then just look around - Monster, Red Bull, Rockstar,
Full Throttle… I think just about everyone reading this can say without a
doubt that they have atleast tried one of these before in the past 5 years,
if not the past 5 days!
This market is huge and is here to stay!
Here is something even bigger, this companies flagship brand is OSO, a
premium energy beverage that they sell to high profile on premise accounts
in New York.
They developed OSO to stand out from the crowded energy drink market by
providing a premium experience, from taste all the way through to look.
They currently offer OSO products in original and light flavors in an 8.4oz
can. In 2012, and intend to offer OSO product in a glass bottle to round
out the premium experience.
http://www.osobeverages.com/
Those who know marketing at all will know that presentation is massive.
Have you ever ordered something from Apple like a new laptop, iPod, or
iMac? Then you know how much thought goes into the packaging and
presentation.
I believe that PBGC has something incredible with
OSO and I predict that it will be the "Apple" in an overcrowded "Microsoft"
industry. Red Bull and the other energy drinks out there should be worried!
Next, through their subsidiary, Captive Brands, they offer a turnkey
program for retailers from brand development through to product
manufacturing in return for an exclusive supply agreement and/or an ongoing
royalty on sales of the products.
Captive brands are store brands that differentiate themselves based on
brand versus solely price positioning – the next generation of “generics”
or “private labels.” These brands are promoted head-to-head with national
brands, receive premium shelf space, and generally are products that match
national brands in terms of quality.
Despite the brand development and promotion costs, captive brands tend to
have a higher margin for retailers compared to national brands and
therefore are gaining favor across all sectors and categories. This has
become especially true in recent years given the rough economic
environment, which has consumers and retailers alike looking for ways to
save money but not sacrifice quality. By partnering with the retailer, they
gain a significant competitive advantage and unmatched support within the
store. These programs provide them with predictable cash-flow,
order-backed capital allocation, and scale.
This company, in my opinion, is the Gucci, the Louis Vuitton, the Dolce and
Gabbana of the premium beverage market and is expanding as we speak…
Check this out:
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/oso-beverages-lands-iconic-ny-201500701.html
Just this week they announced that OSO will be the exclusive energy
beverage of the New York Water Taxi group, a 12 vessel fleet including the
New York Water Taxi and Circle Line Downtown, which operates the
prestigious ZEPHYR 600 passenger luxury yacht. Between 1.5 and 2 million
people pass through the NYWT and ZEPHYR vessels each year. The ZEPHYR is a
sought after destination for special events, holding nightly parties with
top DJs, radio stations, and sponsors.
This is huge and we should look for an explosive week this week due to this incredible news and an even more explosive 2012 for Premier Beverage
Group Corp.

APS: SNPK setting up for a big bounce next week!
Hi Everyone,
For our new subscribers, Welcome!
All of us here at our newsletter are extremely excited for what is to come this coming week for SNPK, and we hope that you are just as excited as we are!
We will continue our extensive coverage of this promising pick throughout the week and for as long as need be, making sure our members have as much information as possible in order to make the most informed investment decisions with SNPK.
The way we see it at this very moment, SNPK is trading at a massive discount, presenting a fantastic opportunity for those who missed the boat with our first alerts. We're definitely looking forward to see it trading again in the 70 cent range very soon, and then potentially surpassing the 1$ mark as it continues to brand new highs!
As we stated in yesterday's email, SNPK's end-of-day "news release" on Friday was truly nothing to worry about, and many of our intelligent subscribers were able to jump in at absolute bargain levels and make an excellent quick profit.
We witnessed an immediate recovery right before the bell rang, and we can only assume that it would have closed even higher (quite possibly in the green) if there were a few more minutes of trading!
It's public knowledge now that the CEO is holding on to his shares, and is focusing on long term growth with SNPK. Just like us, he knows the potential of his company (and just as you surely do by now as well).
Don't forget that all of our picks in 2012 have been winners for our subscribers, with our last pick jumping from 7 cents to over $1.60 in the matter of a few short weeks for gains of over 2100%! These are the type of gains that our newsletter is reputed for, and these are the results that we strive to bring out members time and time again! The best part? We strongly believe that SNPK could be next!
Keep a close eye on SNPK this week as it could become our next hall of famer!
Happy Trading!

Now THIS is funny ... SNPK NEWS OUT:
Sunpeaks Ventures Engages Former All-Star Player and Current Professional Basketball Head Coach as National Clotamin Spokesperson
SILVER SPRING, Md., March 17, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Sunpeaks Ventures, Inc.'s (OTCBB: SNPK.OB - News) (PINKSHEETS: SNPK.OB - News) (the "Company" or "Sunpeaks Ventures") wholly owned subsidiary Healthcare Distribution Specialist, LLC ("HDS") is pleased to announce that they have entered into an agreement with former All-Star player and professional basketball coach, Paul Silas, as national spokesperson for Clotamin®.

Company doesn't know anything about an ongoing Promo ... lmfao
They release News after they said:
Sunpeaks also has become aware that internet newsletters have been making unsupportable claims, inappropriate comparisons and unjustifiable common stock performance projections about the Company.
This is just sick...
Lets enjoy the show it's worth it.
Preferred, Selected and Heroes sent slightly different phrased Mail:
Hi Everyone,
For our new subscribers, welcome!
For those of you that watched what looked like chaos for a few hours during the 2nd half of the trading day, we feel it is our duty to update you on what we’re seeing.
Obviously we saw a serious retraction at which point new investors seemed to spot the potential deal of a lifetime. SNPK ended up closing at almost 50 cents and with great momentum going in to the weekend.
In our opinion it was recent news released by the company that triggered panic, and allowed short sellers to see what they dream about. The bright side of all this is that the weak are most certainly shaken out at this point, and we should begin to see this thing breakout.
As far as the “news” is concerned we feel it’s important to take a closer look before jumping to conclusions. All it says is that there was communication between SNPK and authorities to make sure everything was in line.
Let us tell you this…
FROM EVERYTHING THAT WE KNOW, THIS LOOKS LIKE STANDARD PROCEDURE AND HAPPENS ALL THE TIME!
We know for a fact that the CEO of the company is holding on to his SNPK shares in full. It’s been announced he can’t sell in to the market, and therefore fully committed to the long term growth of the company.
If we learned anything from this “News” it should be that the company is fully committed to long term success and is taking every possible step to achieve their goals. We are looking at this in a very positive nature and believe our members should consider the same.
Our members that have been with us since our alert on SNPK should be very confident right now. The stock is still trading well above from where we alerted, and saw an end of day rally that we think will continue going in to next week.
If we didn’t believe in SNPK our members would have already received a buyer beware from our team. Your success is our success and without our members support we are no better than any other newsletter out there.
We believe our history speaks for itself and feel strongly that if our members stick with us through thick and thin they will be heavily rewarded.
Happy trading!
PreferredPennyStocks.com
I think the majority was sold already on Day one.
Whetu Inc had 50 million to sell.
Quite hard to pump a vitamin product that is already on the Market for years with no significant revenue and also in wholesale via Amazon and even On Sale according to several sites. Seems as the Interest is pretty low to begin with. I don't know why anybody would give a flying F for another Distributor/Wholeseller.
Check www.Clotamin.com and check availability in Stores near you.. seems to be already in every major Store anyways. Revenues almost zero...
And the Answer from APS:
Hi Everyone,
For our new subscribers, Welcome!
For those of you who were around the last few hours of trading today you probably noticed a temporary huge retraction with our pick.
It fell to almost 25 cents at its very low before intelligent investors purchased shares at these bargain levels and it ended up closing the day at right around 50 cents. Still about 25% lower on the day.
What happened? A "news" was released through the wire commenting on SNPK's recent soaring and large volume.
We don't get why people panicked for no reason and we are quite certain that there was a lot of shortsellers contributing to the panic and feeding off of legitimate buyers.
Why is there nothing to worry about? Because if everyone reads carefully what the "news" states all it says is that the market authorities communicated with SNPK to make sure everything is fine over there, and it definitely seems to be fine.
We know for a fact that the CEO of the company is holding onto his SNPK shares fully. They announced that his stock cannot be sold into the market, and that he is thus committed long term growth of the company.
Moreover they commented about investor awareness campaigns saying that they have not paid news outlets to disseminate content about the company which is also true as most newsletters are compensated by third parties.
If anything the press announcement today should reassure us that the insiders at SNPK are 100% committed to the long term goals of the company, and that they are not selling their positions. They are holding their positions!
We see today's news as very positive PR that strengthens the fact that SNPK and its CEO are solid.
If the actual CEO of the company is holding his stock and not selling shouldn't we consider doing the same? That could be a clue that a lot of amazing things are brewing there.
Last but not least the company also reaffirmed that they stand firmly behind the accuracy and content of all their previous press announcements.
This leads us to believe even more strongly that the negotiations with the NBA star who could become a spokesperson for SNPK are going well!
Those of you following SNPK closely have already noticed the revolutionary developments it is making. The company is in its final stages of negotiation to hire a former All-Star NBA player and current NBA coach as their spokesperson. We don't need to tell you what happens to the value of a company when they get associated with celebrities.
SNPK has Clotamin®, a specialized over-the-counter multivitamin product designed exclusively for use by patients also on Warfarin, a popular blood thinner that has a long list of known adverse drug and food interactions.
Again in our opinion today's events were a very good sign that SNPK is solid, and we plan on continuing to cover the company and updating our members daily for many weeks to come. We are 100% committed to SNPK and still stand by our pick!
Happy Trading!

SEC crackdown ends Wild West days of private stock trades
NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- The party's over. After a yearlong investigation into the trading of private-company stock, the Securities and Exchange Commission filed charges on Wednesday against four firms involved in the shadowy secondary market.
The charges vary against trading platform SharesPost and investment funds Felix Investments, Facie Libre Management and EB Financial, but they all signal the same thing: no more free-wheeling trading in the stock of companies that aren't yet public.
Private markets like SharesPost and its larger rival SecondMarket burst onto the scene in 2009 to fill a market gap. After the dot-com collapse, the public markets shunned tech companies. But as hot companies like Facebook grew, investors started clamoring for a piece of the action.
Enter SharesPost and SecondMarket, which began experimenting with operating eBay-like exchanges to connect sellers -- typically employees and early investors -- with potential buyers.
The private exchanges are more lightly regulated than public exchanges like Nasdaq and the New York Stock Exchange. That's because "retail" investors -- your average stock buyers -- can't shop on them. Only accredited investors, like investment funds and individuals with a net worth of at least $1 million, can participate.
Sooner or later, participants knew, the SEC would come knocking. The agency kicked off its probe in December 2010 with a "voluntary request for information" to several industry participants.
The charges: Of the three cases announced on Wednesday, SharesPost's has the deepest implications for the secondary market.
The SEC accused SharesPost and its CEO, Greg Brogger, of operating as a broker-dealer -- facilitating deals -- without having obtained a license to do so. (Rival SecondMarket is registered as a broker-dealer.)
SharesPost paid penalties of $80,000 to settle the case, while Brogger himself paid $20,000. In the wake of the investigation, SharesPost acquired a company with a broker-dealer license. That move brought it into SEC compliance.
As Fortune first reported Tuesday, ahead of the SEC's announcement, the second case is against EB Financial Group and managing director Laurence Albukerk. They were charged with hiding mark-ups on their Facebook investments.
"Investors in Albukerk's two Facebook funds ultimately paid significantly more than the fees disclosed in the offering materials," the SEC said.
EB and Albukerk neither admitted nor denied the charges, but they paid a total of $310,499 to settle.
The SEC also charged Frank Mazzola and two of the funds he helms, Felix Investments and Facie Libre, with "improper self-dealing" -- making "secret commissions" on their purchases of Facebook stock. They were also charged with making false statements to investors, including allegedly lying about Twitter's revenue and about buying stock in FarmVille-maker Zynga. That case has not been settled.
Three of the companies named in Wednesday's complaint came up in a CNNMoney investigation last year.
In February 2011, CNNMoney filed Freedom of Information Act requests to the SEC, seeking details of the agency's communications with major players in the private-stock market. The requests included -- among other companies -- SharesPost, Felix Investments and EB Financial.
The SEC denied all of the requests, citing a FOIA exemption that shields records compiled for a still-ongoing law enforcement investigation.
Wednesday's announcement marks an end to the Wild West of a lightly regulated secondary market.
However, its future was already in doubt. The once-frozen IPO waters have thawed, and 2011 was jammed with splashy public debuts, including Groupon (GRPN), LinkedIn (LNKD), Zynga (ZNGA) and Pandora (P).
The hottest startup of them all, Facebook, filed for a $5 billion IPO last month. That immediately set off speculation about whether the secondary market will survive.
SecondMarket -- the industry's biggest player, and one that appears to have escaped the SEC probe unscathed -- insists that private-stock exchanges will be a lasting companion to the public markets.
If so, the SEC made it clear this week that they'll have to play by a new set of rules.

THANKS retiredanalyst!!
SNPK was showing -3.8B shares
on ETrade
seems as they do already...
That's correct.
But if you track the Newsletter and sort them by the Address in the Bottom of them, you will find that the Address changed always for the same "Group" of Newsletters the others were never effected.
All the PennyPic Sites (Centro Azteca S.A) have the Hong Kong Address, the APS/Crazy Sites show Singapore formerly Belize, and Advice/Preferred (Bright Tech Media Limited) still show Belize.
So far i haven't seen that any of those Newsletters has changed the "Group".
BUT i recognized yesterday that PennyStockAdvice send out a different Email as the other Sites that share the same Address, the exact same Mail that was sent by the "Centro Acteca Sites" this morning before the Bell.
In the Past there was another "Group of Newsletters" Rumblestocks, FreePennyAlerts that showed this Address FreePennyAlerts.com is owned by FPA LLC, 40 E. Main St., #572, Newark, DE 19711. But they didn't send anything so far.
SamSam posted a list earlier on. There was one Newsletter on it that got attention since i've never seen it before: www.supermaxstocks.com
Just check yourself what Google comes up with if you search for supermaxstocks.com

SNPK -> one motnth confirmed APS no Officially picked
Today's pick is: SNPK
Hi Everyone,
For our new subscribers, Welcome!
Due to popular demand from our members we have decided to cover SNPK as our pick for the coming month or so.
Our pick is already up 35% this morning, and we expect this uptrend to continue throughout the weeks to come.
If SNPK can simply replicate the percentage gains of our last pick that would be equivalent to a run to nearly $10 for it.
We are issuing an official SNPK coverage announcement right now so call your friends and family right now and tell them about SNPK!
SNPK is a pick we believe is going "viral" as everyone tweets about it, posts facebook statuses about it, shows up on message boards, around everyone's dinner table and the talk of the moment at the office!
Cool fact to keep in mind: Our previous pick went from 7 cents to almost $2 for a total of about 2,500%. SNPK is currently at 60 cents so a similar % gain for it would translate into about $10 per share if it can replicate our previous pick's chart.
The markets are near all time highs, and we are in the middle of a bull run. Our new pick could benefit big from the situation!
SNPK also owns and markets Clotamin®, a specialized over-the-counter multivitamin product designed exclusively for use by patients also on Warfarin®, a popular blood thinner that has a long list of known adverse drug and food interactions.
The company is in the final stages of negotiations to engage former All-Star NBA player and current NBA head coach as National Clotamin spokesperson.
SNPK is already on fire and is about to get MUCH hotter! Add it to your watchlist right now!
Happy Trading!
Your SecretPennyStocks Editor.

Today's pick is: SNPK
Hi Everyone,
For our new subscribers, Welcome!
Our last pick soared from 7 cents at our initial alert all the way up to nearly $2 for total gains of well over 2,000% in a 50-day period!
Thanks to our last pick, and our 100% success rate in 2011 our newsletter is now renowned as the best free newsletter on the planet.
Members who participated in our picks last year had a chance of multiplying their initial investment by tens of thousands of percent (compounded gains)
A simple $5,000 investment would've had the opportunity of becoming well over $1million within a 12 month period.
We are currently working on profiling a brand new pick. We know we said our announcement would come much earlier, but all good things are worth waiting for.
We will be announcing SNPK officially some time between the 19th and 26th of March. For now you may add it to your watch list and keep a close eye on it.
If you plan on telling your friends and family about this new pick we'd ask you not to do it quite yet as we want to issue the official announcement first to all our members before non-members get the opportunity of buying SNPK.
Cool fact to keep in mind: Our previous pick went from 7 cents to almost $2 for a total of about 2,500%. SNPK is currently at 45 cents so a similar % gain for it would translate into more or less $10 per share if it can replicate our previous pick's chart.
The markets are near 3-year highs, and we are in the middle of a bull run. Our new pick could benefit tremendously from this uptrend.
Happy Trading!

Let me add Group #3
I fully agree with NoDummy that AwesomeStocks is not related to them, they are a fake imo.
I think there are currently #3 Groups and not only #2:
Group #1
The Crazy/Awesome Penny List
featuring Crazy, Awesome, Expert, Universe etc...
They formerly signed their news Letter with: Centro Azteca S.A | 35 New road | Belize City, Belize POB1708, Belize
Now (starting with NSRS): Centro Azteca S.A | 10 Anson Road #16-16/6087, International Plaza | Singapore, Singapore 079903, Singapore
Group #2
The PennyPic/Titan List
featuring PennyPic, Titan, Gladiator, Explicit, Victory etc...
This Group shows at the bottom of their Newsletter: Bright Tech Media Limited | 6/F Yen Sheng Centre, 64 Hoi Yuen Road, | Kwun Tong, Kowloon 8523, Hong Kong
Group #3
The Prefered/Advice Group
featuring only a small amount of Newsletters which are:
Advice, Prefered, Heros and Select
This Group shows this Address: Victory Mark Corp LTD, 4 Lords Bank, Ladyville Belize City, Belize
For SNPK only Group #2 and #3 send out Newsletters but not the "main" Group #1 aka Awesome/Crazy
BTW, two hours after PennyStockAdvice send out their "pre" Alert:
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=73052075
saying: We will be announcing SNPK officially some time between the 19th and 26th of March. For now you may add it to your watch list and keep a close eye on it.
the other Sites from Group #3 send out something different:
Hi Everyone,
For our new subscribers, Welcome!
Our new huge pick is SNPK Sunpeaks Ventures Inc!
We hope everyone is ready for another great month of trading and are excited about this very first look of our next possible 1000% gainer!
SNPK is an up and coming Healthcare Distribution Specialist who focuses on specialty drug needs and OTC branded multivitamins.
We love a company in the pharmaceutical industry because we know one thing; the drug industry isn’t going anywhere!
Our last pick, NSRS, went from 14 cents to $1.72 showing members gains of over 1129%!
That could have shown members who invested $5,000 a return of $56,428 in just a few short weeks. Not too shabby!
SNPK could blow our last pick, NSRS, out of the water. For those of you that followed NSRS you know that would be no small accomplishment!
Our members had an extremely successful 2011 and a great start to this trading year. We fully expect for that to continue with SNPK. Do not miss out on this next huge opportunity that could be our biggest pick to date.
Be sure to stay focused and let us keep you updated.
Happy Trading!

Not sure if Group #1 will release this as well, personally i highly doubt it.
Oh one more thing. Take a look at the AWSR chart, as soon as this pick came out it dropped big time, then people start to realize ups it's not the next Awesome Pick and bought back. I'm also sure that AWSR won't be the pick and i'm sure they made good $$$ on this "accidental" release. JMHO
RARS remains a prime candidate for an upcoming Promotion, but if it'll be their next pick... who knows.
Yeah it's them together again. Just out:

Sunpeaks Ventures Enter Final Stages of Negotiations to Engage Former All-Star NBA Player and Current NBA Head Coach as National Clotamin Spokesperson
SILVER SPRING, Md., March 8, 2012 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Sunpeaks Ventures, Inc. (OTCBB: SNPK) (PINKSHEETS: SNPK) (the "Company" or "Sunpeaks Ventures") and its wholly owned subsidiary Healthcare Distribution Specialist, LLC ("HDS") are pleased to announce that they have entered into the final stages of negotiations to engage a well-known sports celebrity to act as Clotamin? national spokesperson. Clotamin is the world's first specialized OTC multivitamin product designed exclusively for use by patients on Warfarin? and other anticoagulants (blood thinners).
The proposed sports celebrity spokesperson is a current National Basketball Association (NBA) head coach and Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame nominated player. During his 15+ year career as a player in the NBA, he collected more than 10,000 points and 10,000 rebounds, won three championship rings, and was twice named to the NBA All-Star team. He is listed in the NBA Top 20 List for career games played, career rebounding leaders, and career playoff rebounding leaders. Since his retirement from active play, he has spent time as a popular NBA television commentator and as head coach with several NBA teams.
"We couldn't be happier about identifying a current Clotamin user who also happens to be a legendary player and coach in the NBA. We believe that a strong marketing campaign featuring this individual could really help to boost Clotamin awareness and sales across the board," stated Mackie A. Barch, CEO of Sunpeaks. "Upon successful conclusion of negotiations, we intend to launch a national ad campaign featuring the famous player/coach designed to drive Clotamin into new markets and distribution channels."

The Most Controversial Penny Stock Innovation In Years (A 3,000 Word Essay)
March 4, 2012 at 11:26 am
by Timothy Sykes
Right up alongside the beauty/independence of being able to make thousands of dollars per day from pretty much anywhere in the world and having students like this trading challenge student make 10x his account size in less than an hour, I take great pride in my talent for innovation.
In late-2002, just after my 21st birthday, after having turned my $12,415 in Bar Mitzvah gift money into over $1 million at that point, I created this unique scholarship for talented people in the Tulane community — not open solely to students — even while I was still a Junior at Tulane University…over the past decade, that award has given away thousands to deserving individuals.
In late-2007, I was the first person to publicly encourage and teach the practice of buying & short selling promoted penny stocks, the EXACT strategy which made me a millionaire at age 22, via my 4 newsletters and instructional DVD packages, for which I took considerable heat HERE (the author has since changed his impression of me as you can see HERE and I am proud to have him as my chatroom moderator and someone who has made hundreds of thousands of dollars now with my strategy) despite threats from too many truly ignorant people who claimed it was illegal to short stocks under $5/share (no it’s not illegal, most brokers just suc and they tell you it’s illegal so you don’t realize how badly they suck…so idiocy is spread until the people email me and I correct this inaccuracy by point them to this great broker for shorting penny stocks)
In mid-2009, my designer Adarsh and I co-created the revolutionary charting website Chart.ly, as covered here by TechCrunch, before being screwed out of it by Howard Lindzon and StockTwits…see my lawsuit HERE as covered by Reuters…detailed blog post coming soon.
In late-2009, I was sick and tired of financial products like my newsletters not having enough public reviews and having a tough time keeping track of the many hundred reviews I was getting, so I created Investimonials, as you can read about our launch as covered by TechCrunch, to help make the industry more transparent…roughly 20,000 reviews later, I’m proud to have played a tremendous role in creating financial transparency.
In early-2010, I also created Profitly because reviews, % gains on Covestor and performance charts like this simply aren’t enough to determine a trader’s usefulness/acumen and now over 13,000+ traders have joined and again we have MORE transparency and honesty….and as you can see by the beautiful widget created by Profitly co-founder Mike Mosseri on the right side of my site and hundreds of other sites, we have found innovative ways to display our trades quickly and efficiently…and our Profitly affiliate program will soon revolutionize the shady affiliate world too…stay tuned.
And there’s a whole lot more innovation coming too, projects I’ve been working on for months…
Because after all, as subscribers of my 4 newsletters know, my trading performance numbers rock as you can see here, which is why I have remained the #1 trader out of 60,000+ on Covestor the past 4 years and in addition to over a dozen instructional DVDs in my online store, I have over 550 video lessons that are now categorized and organized thanks to this guy…so you have NO excuse not to learn every single pattern, subtlety and lesson I teach.
So with all that said, I can never just sit still and despite the $3.5 million my websites pulled in during 2011, I’m always looking to challenge myself with new tasks and cool/revolutionary projects. After all, Profitly is now 13,000+ traders strong with a supreme business model that is hugely scalable and Investimonials keeps chugging along now with roughly 20,000 reviews…
My new challenge/task is infinitely more difficult and important and thus will be to take on the very stock promoters who I’ve exposed and ripped on so many times before…click this blog category and see dozens of articles and several SEC halts/investigations I predicted and exposed.
…by helping change the industry from the inside.
That’s right my goal is now not just to educate everyone on the risks/rewards/predictability of stock promotion, but to continue educating while innovating this incredibly shady industry by making it honest and ethical.
Some don’t think it’s possible without blatantly lying, but I’m out to prove that wrong…as I will focus on education about which patterns are the best to buy and identifying the biggest promotions because they actually can be great buying opportunities if you catch them early enough (as evidenced by the popularity of the awesome PrePromo Alerts newsletter on Profitly)
After all, there’s nothing wrong with companies, especially smallcap and microcap companies, wanting and paying to get exposure, it’s no different from marketing and PR, which are two of the biggest industries in the world…we’re talking trillions of dollars…and advertising is a notoriously ethically challenged world.
The problem with current smallcap and microcap marketing, and why this industry is currently SO small and shady, is that the current “IR (investor relations)” and PR firms only focus on creating longterm shareholders who gullibly believe in the company’s “story” by luring them in with lies, hyperbolic comparisons and projections like these morons who spent $500,000 comparing the promoted penny stock Crowdgather to internet giants like Google and Yahoo….or these idiots who tried to use an invisible disclaimer to hide they were getting paid to promote Mesa Energy (MSEH)…just before MSEH put out an SEC filing telling people not to listen to my expose and to focus on their TheStreet.com and other press coverage…just before an SEC investigation into MSEH’s massive insider selling :)
The IR and PR firms try to use their lawyers (and fail) when I have posted the truth about their promotions as I’ve gotten cease & desist letters from celebrities like Shaq and Justin Bieber, who both received millions of shares of stock of promoted penny stocks, telling me to remove THIS post and THIS post, respectively…cease and desist letters I publicly replied to HERE and HERE, respectively before both of these celebrity promotions collapsed 95%+…neither celebrity apologized to me and to this day I get weekly emails from people who have been crushed by investing in these stocks.
And of course I’ve been “sued” (although I never got served) by the biggest penny stock promotion of all time SpongeTech, just days before their entire management team was arrested for fraud, perjury, etc….no apology was ever given.
These are just a few of my run ins with promoters and their promotions and I literally have several dozen more…I list 77 alone in this video…and no, those aren’t real “dislikes” on ANY of my Youtube videos…promoters hired Indians, as the analytics prove, to click “dislike” on several of my most popular videos — all within a few days — to discredit me so my student base wouldn’t grow and realize how to short sell these promotions.
Long story short, I have the single most impressive resume of anyone in the world with regards to exposing and educating traders and investors on how to profit by short selling promoted penny stocks as despite my strategy being right, real and teachable, IR and PR firms have proven they will do anything to hide the truth and wisdom I espouse.
So it’s a “huge” controversy when I innovate this space with a truly honest and non-hyperbolic blog post, preceded by several educational videos explaining how promotion works and can truly spike a stock, like this regarding the upcoming promotion on IRYS which contains passages like:
Volume is picking up quickly on iTrackrSystems (IRYS) in the first day of a week-long stock promotion.
The IR company has sent me receipts showing 800,000 direct mail pieces promoting IRYS are scheduled for release next week, and a $300,000 email marketing campaign has begun just today.
One promoter jumped the gun in mailing out yesterday, so the stock is already enjoying record volume.
I was going to send out this alert Friday, but because of the quick movement in volume, I felt it important to give you this alert NOW!
All 100% true…and SPECIFICALLY NOT AIMED at longterm investors, but traders who actually should be watching this stock during it’s upcoming promotion. Volume was a record-breaking 3 million shares the day we sent that out, the main part of the promotion is scheduled to begin next week and one of the promoters did release his pick early which forced us to release our report too.
And yes as we also state:
My publisher and I were paid $100,000 to announce this trade alert. I only did it because I’d get to be among the first to release the pick, giving you the best opportunity possible.
My cut of the $100k was $50k, and as you’ll see with a new website I’ll soon be unveiling, I’ll be giving much of this PR money away…as I’ve been planning this honest, transparent and revolutionary business model for many months.
And remember my businesses really did pull in $3.5 million in 2011 and roughly $1 million in 2 months of 2012 so I need $50k like Reaper needs hair-plugs (he doesn’t his hair is perfect)…actually I INSISTED on being compensated to help prove there really was a large promotion campaign coming up and the higher the dollar amount I got, the more likely this promotion is for real (similar to how book publishers only push books which they have given out large advances to the authors…the large upfront payout makes them invested in the project…which is why I walked away from Wiley’s $35k advance offer for my book…I needed $100k to have confidence in them…which was the right decision given me $200k+ in earnings on the book the past few years…and it keeps going steadily just like promotions with $5,000-$25,000 budgets rarely are worth trading)
And no I don’t just short sell promoted penny stocks, I made my first million buying promoted penny stocks on their breakouts and have bought promoted stocks like TKDN and TBBC in the past thinking they were heading higher, both of which tanked within a few days after my technical breakout buys failed since the promoters just wanted to screw me and my subscribers since we have screwed them so many times before….several of my promoted buy picks have also worked very well like my buy on LEXG just under $1.40 before it zoomed to $10+ a few weeks later and Profitly users have made an astounding $300,000+ on this stock…the vast majority on the long side given how few shares were available to short.
I bought LEXG at $1.40 specifically due to its $3 million promotional budget (as tipped off by a wonderful alert from PrePromo Alerts) and the likelihood of rising prices…and I sold FAR too early, never expecting the stock to surge all the way to $10+/share in just a few weeks (that’s the power of a large promotional campaign)
Well, now my goal is to deliver similarly solid picks early in the biggest promotions. The promoters can still screw me, but given that my ideas on honest and ethical promotion could literally make this a billion dollar industry, I had a feeling they’d give it a chance…and so far IRYS is up nicely over a few days, my students have profited several thousand dollars on IRYS (Reaper, who is against my plans, himself made nearly $1,000)…so we’ll see if the mailing comes through this coming week, I’m compensated and biased, but I’d say the odds are good.
I will not be trading IRYS or any other company where I have been compensated to give the company exposure, I don’t want to blur that line at all…the good news is that since these are classic promotions, they’ll follow the same EXACT pattern I’ve been trading, teaching and writing about for years so if you actually bother to study my educational materials, you will know how to trade it without any actual trade alerts from me (ah the beauty of having worked so hard on SO many study guides that you can use every single day and trade EXACTLY like me.)
And I’ll continue trading and alerting all other stocks where I receive no compensation just the same as I’ve always done; shorting most of the time (usually not finding shares to short though), buying sometimes, adapting to price action in pursuit of profits the same as always.
So you’re welcome in advance and shame on those who thought I’d been “corrupted”…2 separate SEC lawyers approved my email on IRYS and it is 100% legal, honest and ethical.
I wonder if some of you jackals even realize that I am THE GUY who popularized short selling penny stocks, showed you the best brokers with which to short sell, and taught too many of you EXACTLY how to profit on both the long and short sides of these promotions… without me, the vast majority of my readers would just continue losing money like in the past, being suckered in without any knowledge whatsoever…which still goes on, but I’m proud to say I’ve put a solid dent in the numbers.
Sure, sure, a few people also knew how to profit, but they kept it to themselves and to this day they give me shit too for making my strategy too popular! (newsflash Einstein, shares were always hard to borrow, that’s why I went into teaching and not running a billion dollar hedge fund and that’s why I’m so much more excited to announce solid buy picks rather than shorts)
So all you ingrates, guess what, show some respect for someone who has helped you learn and earn SO much over the years and have a little faith that I haven’t gone crazy or needed $50k that badly…my plan might be bold and over many of your little heads, but just watch and sit back in awe from your cubicles as I single-handedly change this industry into the great transparent marketplace it should be, or at least put a major dent in it just as I have with my teaching, once we take away the confusion, lying and dishonesty.
Sure, sure there will still be corrupt and dishonest PR and IR firms, but I have a feeling their effectiveness will soon pale in comparison to my honest PR, little different from how SoHo in NYC thrived only when much of the criminal element were removed…there’s still a little crime, but its been reduced incredibly in the past few decades so that very little of the old remains.
Oh yes, I have a longterm vision too here, this isn’t about my alerting just one good pick, it’s an entire new way of thinking….no promoter has ever simply taught honestly ie promoting the promotion only and not lying about a promoted company’s prospects.
Now, thanks in large part to my, Reaper‘s, Nate’s and PrePromo Alerts‘ success, there is a large contingency of traders who are on the lookout for new large promotions that greatly benefit under-exposed companies.
In my early DVDs, yes, I said I would never take compensation with any picks, but I didn’t realize the opportunity in strictly telling the truth and the NEED for my taking compensation on these kinds of picks (to verify that there actually is a large promotion instead of just guessing or arriving too late)…yup, I was wrong…then again, in my best-selling book “An American Hedge Fund”, I also said a trader should never disclose their strategy or else it’ll stop working.
Well, 4+ years and 5,000+ blog posts later, my strategy works fine and the patterns remain the same…yes I have been wrong in the past and I will be too in the future, but I won’t stop evolving and adapting to what I believe is right.
This is America and the sad thing is that all the IR/PR firms in the past have done things so dishonestly, we’ve never really seen what’s possible with penny stocks if anyone actually brings honest exposure into the equation.
Thanks to my bold plan, we’re about to find out.
Now I can educate people all day long about how to buy breakouts in promoted stocks and then look for and then then actually short when the promotions are at an end, but less than 30% of my PennyStocking Silver subscribers even bother watching my 550+ video lessons. Less than 20% have ever bothered to watch my instructional DVDs…they don’t want to learn, they want “hot picks”…disgusting.
Only my trading challenge students truly want to learn and despite us receiving thousands of applications, we only accept a small number as I have no time to waste on people who only want “hot picks” as opposed to actual education to which I have dedicated my life.
And now even when I give “hot picks” like IRYS, you’re gonna get honest and promoted stock education included (ie You should be watching IRYS because if the large promotion does come through next week, it’s gonna be VERY fun to watch)
Yes, it’s been many months since I made this bold decision to innovate the business of smallcap and microcap company marketing…by simply telling the truth and being useful to both companies that want exposure and traders who want to be alerted to these superior trade setups.
As I said in this video, “honesty is sadly a revolutionary concept on Wall Street” and I meant it.
I’m excited to put my theories into practice and forgive early doubters who simply underestimate my ambition, determination and ethics.
To those who believe in me, thank you, I’m about to prove you right in some big and interesting ways in the coming years.
