Commerce Planet (OTC BB: CPNE) Puts Money Where Is

This morning I was going through the BLOG comments from the past few days. One member asked for an updated chart on Commerce Planet, still the #1 most widely held and followed OTC Journal idea- also still my #1 idea for price appreciation. 

I thought it was a good idea to provide a technical update, and was starting to look at the chart just this afternoon when news hit the tape.

As it turns out, the chart you will see in this edition might be old news by tomorrow morning if CPNE responds appropriately relative to today's news. Almost as if on cue, the company is actually doing what a number of OTC Journal subscribers have suggested already. Mr. Hill must be reading and taking your ideas to heart.

Today, just after the close, CPNE announced the board has authorized the buy back of up to $2 million worth of stock either through private transactions or in the open market. 

Stock buy backs are tricky, but they are always good for shareholders. There are regulatory restrictions which make them more complicated than they appear at the outset. For example, the company can't just decide to start buying as much as they want tomorrow. There are restrictions. I believe they can only match the highest bid price. They can't sweep out the offers in the open market.

In the case of CPNE, the idea of buying back stock in a private transaction might be far more interesting. The supply of stock coming from early financiers has been well chronicled, and perhaps the company can buy a number of shares at a discount to the market and then retire them. This would reduce the number of shares I&O, and therefore increase the value of your ownership (assuming you are a shareholder).

I suspect this move will get the stock moving up nicely. Here's the chart as of today's close:

Let's take a little longer term look at what has happened with this stock. This chart goes back to $.50- when the June numbers were released. The stock surged to a high of $1.80 by mid October. 

The drop back into the $1.50 in anticipation of the Q3 earnings release was a normal trading pattern. Investors got confused with this stock when it sold off just after releasing the Q3 numbers- which were spectacular. Common sense suggested the stock should have gone higher.

Many theories concerning the sell off have been bandied about- regardless of the reason this fact remains- there was more supply than demand at that moment in time.

The longer term picture right now is quite bullish. The post Q3 numbers sell off sent many momentum traders scurrying for the exit door. I advised traders to sell the stock if they weren't prepared to hold it down to $1- on the third day it traded down to $1.11. 

Now the stock seems to have found a level it likes- $1.30. Based on today's news, this level should act as a spring board for the stock to try to surge higher.

Two things jump off the chart- 1. The stock is trading right on the 38.2% retracement level of the move off $.50- a great level to accumulate, and 2. Volume has dried up considerably since the crazy week post Q3 numbers suggesting supply is diminishing.

Technically, this all bodes very well for this stock to start behaving better this week. If it does start behaving better, the next edition will cover "measured moves". 

Here is the complete text of today's news for your review:

Monday November 27, 4:33 pm ET

GOLETA, Calif., Nov. 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- CommercePlanet, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: CPNE - News) announced today that its Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program pursuant to which up to $2,000,000.00 of its outstanding common stock may be repurchased from time to time.
