That is the old paid promo BS from last September.
"Goldman Small Cap Research is not in any way affiliated with Goldman Sachs & Co."
"Goldman Small Cap Research was compensated $4000 by a third party for the production and distribution of this research report, associated press release, and distribution."
Goldman Small Cap Research is run by a clever bugger, called Rob Goldman, who writes sponsored small-cap and micro-cap stock reports and the like. Neither Rob (what a propitious name) nor Goldman Small Cap Research is a registered investment adviser or associated with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority in any capacity. However, everybody's name, including yours, is on a sucker's list somewhere. So imagine getting a phone call from a penny stock broker who tells you: "Goldman's research believes that this $1-a-share intellectual property stock is a pure-play technology issue. It has enormous potential licensing revenues and could enjoy similar success as (then names several successful stocks), which have market caps in the billions of dollars. Your $3,000 investment in this unique wireless intellectual property company could rival an original investment in Microsoft or IBM or Facebook." Not a single word is false. And because you want to believe this could be true, you take the hook and bait with 3,000 shares. Isn't greed a wonderful motivator?
