All were being pumped, and were way behind on SEC reports, and or the SEC reports differed greatly from the PR pump news.
Some examples of the promotions are as follows:
* Calypso Wireless Inc. has not filed periodic reports since February 2008, when it filed a report for the period ending Sept. 30, 2007. Despite that, the company’s share price rose from 4 cents on Sept. 21, 2011 to an intra-day high of 17 cents on Sept. 24, 2011. Over the same period, trading volume jumped to nearly six million shares, up from 376,000 shares. On Sept. 24, 2011, a stock-promoting website encouraged investors to continue buying Calypso Wireless shares (PINK: CLYW, CLYW message board), stating, in part, “Over the week, CLYW stock has been running wild … This CLYW stock rush happened just like that, on no company’s news and on old, well known SEC filings, done for the investment community.”
* Shares in Kore Nutrition Inc. began to spike on Aug. 31, 2010, following the release of a company-paid research report setting a target price of $10.50. Moreover, on Sept. 1 and 8, 2010, the company issued press releases announcing new distribution agreements to market its energy drinks. The research report and distribution agreement claims were reiterated on numerous stock-promotion websites, touting Kore Nutrition as a “winner.” Kore Nutrition’s quarterly report for the period ending Sept. 30, 2010, filed with the SEC on Nov. 15, 2010, made no mention of the announced distribution agreements.
* Montvale Technologies Inc. announced the dissolution of the company on Feb. 12, 2010, and last filed financial statements with the SEC for the third quarter of 2009. The company’s shares have nonetheless continued to trade, and to be promoted. On Dec. 22, 2010, a website recommended a “closer look” at Montvale Technologies, claiming it “has the potential to do very well in the short term.” That day, the share price rose 75 percent from 12 cents to 20 cents, and trading volume soared 500 percent over the prior day.
The Microcap Fraud Working Group is a joint initiative of the SEC’s Division of Enforcement and Office of Compliance Inspections and Examinations. The Working Group is pursuing a strategic approach to combating microcap fraud by focusing on recidivists and insiders, and on the attorneys, auditors, broker-dealers, transfer agents and other gatekeepers that facilitate a large volume of the fraud in this sector. The Working Group is comprised of staff from the SEC’s headquarters in Washington D.C., each of its 11 regional offices, and from the Office of Market Intelligence, Division of Corporation Finance, Division of Risk, Strategy, and Financial Innovation, Office of General Counsel, Division of Trading and Markets, and the Division of Investment Management.

Note there is some kind of date error in the news report on the first one, listing Sept 2011 as the day......The other look like SEC was 6-12 months late to the party, LOL! They were probably too busy watching porn.
