Why I Think GTCP Is The Next
APS Promotion
In spite of everybody calling for RARS to be the next Awesome Penny Stocks promotion, I think that it is more likely to be Georgetown Corp (GTCP). And for one significant reason: Mackie Barch.
Until recently, Mackie Barch was running the show at GTCP. Barch still owns a ton of stock. According to a May 8, 2012 8K filing, Barch sold 74% of the company for $25,000. Yeah, right.
I promise you that there is some sort of a plan here for Barch get a few more dollars in his pocket. More likely, he is associated with APS itself. That would mean more than a few dollars.
Barch had to pretend give up control. You see, Barch is also the President and CEO of SNPK. And he has already publicly claimed that he has nothing to do with that promotion. Now he won't have to make the same claim with GTCP, because he won't speak for the company.
Need more? Mackie Barch also had/has a connection with another past APS promotion HDSI. At the time it was announced that Barch was to acquire the shell (previously named GMV Wireless), Barch ran a company called Healthcare Distribution Specialists, LLC. The GMV shell was renamed HDS International Corp and the symbol was changed to (HDSI). Then, without explanation, the Barch acquisition was called off (maybe). Still, with the Barch connection firmly established, APS ran the stock. HDSI was also the subject of a major promotion just this past April, although APS was not directly involved with that.
At 36 years old, Mackie Barch seems a little young to be the CEO of so many public companies, doesn't he? He certainly is not a poster child for loyalty to a company. Barch is just the sort of kid that people like to put in front of these kind of deals, as they will generally keep quite and be lured in by the promised riches. In short, they do what they are told. I think that there is a strong chance that Barch works directly for/with APS.
With APS's favorite son firmly established, the other sign that GTCP is about to be an APS pick is that the stock didn't start trading until yesterday (Wednesday). I would think that it would be quite a coincidence that this thing starts trading just as the SNPK promotion expires.
At any rate, whether RARS is the next APS pick or not, there can be no question that APS will promote GTCP soon. It's fingerprints are all over this stock. I would say that there is a 75% liklihood that GTCP is next, but 100% that it is coming. If GTCP is the next pick, then we all know what will happen. If not, the share price will probably drift for a while and will be worth accumulating on the anticipation of an inevitable promotion.
Disclosure: I own stock in GTCP. I do not own stock in RARS
