On Tuesday, iFinix Corp. (OTC: INXR) released a comprehensive overview of iFinix's corporate strategy and goals for 2007. Chairman Drew Budhu commented, "As iFinix embarks on an accelerated entry into the financial marketplace with its comprehensive line of real time and trading platforms, the level of inquiry from prospective users of our products, shareholders and potential investors has increased dramatically. The summary will prepare our clients for their future with iFinix and address shareholder concerns at this opportune turning point in our corporate history."

(NYSE: WMT) reported a better-than-expected 9.8 percent increase in fourth-quarter profits, helped by new strategy and cost-control measures at its flagship U.S. stores division. But the world's largest retailer still faces the challenge of reinvigorating sales at its U.S. stores amid fierce competition, analysts said. "They're getting some traction, but they've still got a lot of work to do," said Stephanie Hoff, senior retail analyst at Edward Jones. While profits and total sales were up around 10 percent each, Hoff noted that sales at stores open at least one year, a key measure of retail performance, only grew 1.3 percent in the fourth quarter after annual rates well over 5 percent early this decade.
