To OTC Journal Members:

The main topic of this weekend's edition is Blue Zone (OTC BB: BLZN) which is trading extremely well right now.  This was our November profile, released on the 12th at $5 per share.  Today it closed at $13, up from $8.75 on February 1st.  There is a lot happening with this company which leads us to believe it could go higher, and we will share some of those events with you later in this edition.  First, here are some other important topics from this past week to bring to your attention:

NetSol International (NASDAQ: NTWK)

Our biggest winner ever, NetSol made a big move today for another new all time high and a lot of momentum.  Our long term members know that we brought you this company on January 15, 1999 at $3.75.  Today the stock closed at $32, up $7.25 on the day.  Click Here if you wish to go to our archive section on the company.  Here you can view all of our previous editions on NetSol.

If you want to know why this stock is trading so well just take a look at Infosys (NASDAQ: INFY).  This is the only truly comparable company to NetSol.  Infosys moved from the low $400 range this week to a close of $670.  Infosys is an India based IT solutions, programming, and ISP company.  NetSol does the same thing is Pakistan.

Investors are starting to look at NetSol.  Infosys is 20 times as big as NetSol, but is trading at 200 times the market capitalization.   This may explain the recent strong uptrend in the stock.

MicroAccel (OTC BB: MIXL)

No news on our current profile since the name and symbol change earlier this week, but it closed today at a new high since releasing our profile earlier this month.  The stock closed at $5.875 on 243,700 shares.  Click Here for our archive section on MicroAccell.

New China Homes LTD New Issue

No news on that situation other than Mr. Birkenfeld is going to make every effort to accommodate everyone's indication to participate.  If you are interested in IPOs and did not read our Wednesday edition on participating in New China Homes, click here and you will be taken directly to it.  Alternatively, you can go to www.bigbirk.com to learn more.

An event that occurred earlier this week could be interpreted as having some impact on New China.  Barron Chase, the underwriter of New China, had another IPO open for trading yesterday.  Precis Smart Card (NASDAQ: PCIS) was priced at $6.00 and opened for trading yesterday.  The stock traded as high as $13.625, and ended the week at $10.50.  This is no guarantee that New China will do as well, but you have to like the underwriter's performance.

Tropika International LTD (CANADIAN OTC: TPIL)

We have never covered this company and know very little about it.  However, one of our favorite sources tells us this stock should be on everyone's watch list.

We are going to do some due diligence on the company next week.  Right now, we have very little information about them and have no formal affiliation with the company.  We are not being compensated in any way for this coverage.

The have a corporate web site at www.tropika.com.  They are in the E-Commerce services business.  The stock trades on the Canadian version of the OTC under the symbol TPIL.  More information can be found at www.smallcapcenter.com by placing in the ticker symbol O.TPIL.  This would be a good one to look at if you like penny stocks.  It closed at $.60 CDN today on 2.1 million shares and traded very well this week.

Blue Zone (OTC BB: BLZN)

Both the company and the stock are starting to get momentum.  There have been some very exciting recent events at Blue Zone that we will review.  The news release that the company issued on February 4th started the ball rolling.  They announced that they were invited to join a standards organization known as ATVEF.  Here is an excerpt from the press release:

On February 10th, Blue Zone announced that it had joined the Microsoft TV Tools Solution Provider program.  Here is a quote that was in the press release from Microsoft:

"We're very pleased to have Blue Zone join our TV Tools Solution Provider program,'' said Andy Beers, Group Business Development Manager for the TV Platforms Group at Microsoft. "The MediaBz platform working in conjunction with the Microsoft TV platform is a powerful combination for the broadcast community.'' Click Here to read the full text of the press release.

Several other events occurred in this past week to give the company momentum.  Bruce Warren, the CEO of BlueZone, was invited to be a presenter at the prestigious Deutshe Bank Alex Brown Enhanced TV Broadband Roundtable.  The discussions were held in San Francisco on the 10th and 11th, and Bruce Warren presented on Thursday evening.

Blue Zone is the only company which trades on the Bulletin Board which has ever been invited to speak at this prestigious annual event.

Lastly, the Bloomberg news service jumped on the Blue Zone bandwagon with an brief article on January 31st.  Click Here if you wish to read Bloomberg's comments.

This all adds up to a lot of momentum for Blue Zone.  This does not necessarily mean that the stock is going higher immediately, but between ATVEF, Microsoft, and the prestigious BT Alex Brown conference there seems to be a lot of recognition for their technology.

That's all for this week.  We'll be back with more next week.
