Concerning IDWD they have not announced the dividend date, that is why it trades this low because it has been promised for some time now and not many people trust management but to me even if they anounce a 10cent dividend this would fly, I have not invested in this one check the IHUB board im sure the guys there know more than I do. If you want to invest be sure its money you are willing to lose, place a limit order for 16 cents if u want to buy.
How do i know all this stuff? i guess its experience ive been investing actively for 10 years now, not very long on the pinksheets and BB, but ive learned some lessons the hard way, heres some pointer for you for pinks and BB:
-Never trust management completely
- take advice on the internet skeptically most sites are payed to prmote stocks and while you might see results over the short term hardly any of these stocks are going to make you money unless you get out before the dump starts.
for example http://www.stockprowler.com/scoreboard/
looks good doesnt it, if u check what the current stock price is most are 50% lower than the price they announced there recommendation on.
- Even if they anounce plans to move to a more respectable exchange be skeptical it usually takes more time than management expects and may never occur, same with dividends.

How do I pick stocks?
-Stockscreeners are good but you will not be able to analyze pinks
-Its never bad to look at online sites, knobias.com are probably the most respectable but I dont invest based on their opinion do your own research and you will probably find out some important information. Also never invest right away i buy stocks which have already past the pump and dump stage, usually they have been pushed too low and all the speculation is gone.
- Message boards if you see too many skeptics dont invest.
its also good to keep track of stocks that u did not buy through keeping a virtual portfolio sites like investopedia.com allow you to learn without losing real money (not for stocks under 2$), I think you can create one with your online broker too.
