Comments in the BLOG

There aren't any new comments in the BLOG since yesterday's edition on the TLPE acquisition of Liberty Wireless. By the time you read this, there should be a BLOG entry up on Bad Toys (OTC BB: BTYH)- I just don't understand why it has sold off. Please check it out for an update.

To use the BLOG, simply go to the home page at www.otcjournal.com - the BLOG will scroll down automatically on the right side of your screen. The most current journal entries appear in the middle of your screen. Check back frequently for updates particularly when stocks are moving to overbought or oversold levels or in volatile markets. Your questions and postings do not automatically appear, so don't bother posting the same question multiple times. I personally go through to moderate and respond to every reasonable question.
 

UpSnap (OTC BB: UPSN) Snaps Into Action 

Mobile audio and video content is one of the hottest arenas in the stock market today. Even John Madden is doing commercials for Sprint's new sports replay video service. Verizon offers the service as well. Mobile content delivery is expected to grow by leaps and bounds over the next five years, and mobile service providers need to get the content from somewhere.

UPSN was first introduced by the OTC Journal on November 19th in the $2.80 range. I warned subscribers it would be a pretty volatile stock. After making a brief foray into the $3.20 range, the stock hit our stop loss of $2.30 on its way to $1.80 before turning around and heading back up to $2.50. 

Since early December the stock has been quietly trading in the $2.50 range, and I believe is now positioned to start trading up again. The company has spent the last two years and a substantial amount of capital building out one of the first mobile search platforms. It works the same way search works on the internet. In the case of UPSN, you simply dial 2SNAP (27627), then include a text message of what you are looking for. You must include either the zip code or area code to make it geographically specific. It works for shopping comparisons as well. If you want to learn how it all works, simply visit www.upsnap.com

Today, UPSN announced the acquisition of XSVoice, a mobile content provider of audio and video entertainment, sports, news, etc. In essence, this acquisition will make UPSN the only one stop shop for providers for mobile content and search.

In light of this being such a hot arena, I believe this stock is now ready to SNAP back to life. According to the press release, acquisition XSVoice delivers content from ESPN, FOX News, and over 100 music and entertainment channels. Their technology takes the content created by these outlets and delivers it to your cell phone.  As the news gets out over the next several weeks concerning UpSnap having both mobile search and mobile video and audio content available, watch this stock begin to show up on the radar screens of investors with an interest in this sector.

As you can see from the chart, the stock has been very quiet since early December. The volume has come down, and the stock has found a level it likes.

I would expect the volatility you see in the early going to return to this stock- the first move being to the upside. We've been red hot of late, and I believe UPSN is about to keep the trend going. 

Accumulation of this stock for a big move over the next month is strongly recommended.

Here's the complete text of today's news.
