Comments in the BLOG

Yesterday's comment, in case you haven't had a chance to review it, was about streaking Spicy Pickle (OTC BB: SPKL). If you read my BLOG, you will learn that I believe the stock could be a bit ahead of itself, and if you are looking to accumulate more or open a first position, I believe you should wait for a pullback. Read the current BLOG for my thoughts.

The BLOG is your opportunity to ask questions and offer comments. I will make an effort to answer every legitimate question. If I don't know the answer, I will contact the management and get the answer. Alternatively, if you have questions you don't want publicly displayed, you can always email me directly at editor@otcjournal.com.

To use the BLOG, simply go to the home page at www.otcjournal.com - the BLOG scrolls down from the upper right hand corner. The most current journal entries appear on the right hand side of you screen. Check back frequently for updates particularly when stocks are moving to overbought or oversold levels in volatile markets.
 

Do You Think the World is Getting Safer, Part II?

Do you know how much it cost the US Taxpayers to upgrade Airport Security post 911? Are you ready for this number? $2 Billion. With help from the government, officials at Logan Airport in Boston alone spent $140 million just for explosive detection equipment. The Federal government paid 75% of the tab.

Do you know what the TSA is spending for airport security in the Fiscal '06 budget? $4.98 billion. Frost and Sullivan estimates the top 30 companies in the security technology space will generate $6.1 billion in 2009- an eye popping number.

Stand by next week to learn about a speculative company that might get a small but nice chunk of that number. They detect explosives better, cheaper, and faster than we do it now. 
 

Titan Global (OTC BB: TTGL) Looking Tasty

I don't want to go into a big long explanation of the fundamental picture, or why you should own this mini conglomerate, Titan Global. Let's just say when I first started covering the company last October at $.86, it had evolved out of a habitual money loser in the PCB space, into a cash generating monster in the pre paid phone card/mobile telecom company to the tune of about $130 million in annual revenues.

Thanks to recent LBO style acquisitions in September, TTGL now boasts north of $700 million in annual revs, and should be substantively cash flow positive on a go forward basis. The old TTGL had substantial toxic debt. The new version is slowly but surely exorcising the demons of the past, and to that end put its money where its mouth was. TTGL bought a full 1 million shares of its own stock out of the public market over the course of the summer. The money is gone, and the stock is retired.

At last count there were less than 50 million shares I&O- based on Thursday's closing price, we are looking at a market valuation of a mere $96 million against over $700 million in annual revenues.

TTGL was a source of frustration for investors when the market was strong last winter- why- because the stock kept butting up against $1.40, and could never get through that level. From December through May the stock made three tries to break through $1.40, only to be sent back south of $1.25 every time.

As you can see from the chart, the big breakthrough came in late July and early August. If finally broke through the $1.40 level convincingly, and then scampered straight up to the $2.20 level in fairly short order.

If you are flush with cash from SPKL or any other idea of late, and looking for another stock that could be good for either a very strong long term hold, or a high probability trade, jump on TTGL right now.

Last week in my BLOG I suggested the 38.2% retracement level on SPKL was the perfect level to pick up the stock. It turned out extremely well for those in jumped in pretty short order. Believe me, that is not always the case.

TTGL, another stock that has traded very well over the last several months, is now at the perfect 38.2% retracement level, and is starting to turn back up. On a purely technical basis, this stock should be pounced on right now. Longer term, I believe this one is going to $4.
