Survey Results |
|
We published a survey in our April
5th edition asking you to tell us what you wanted from the OTC
Journal. We would like to extend our thanks to those who filled out
the survey. This will help us craft our product to fit your needs better.
Here are some of the interesting
facts we learned from your feedback:
-
44% of you don't care what price range
we feature. The next highest category was $5 to $10, coming in with 22%
of the vote.
-
77% of you want more short term trading
ideas.
-
Regarding length of time you will hold
a stock: 41.5% said it depends on the company. 20% said several months.
20% said more than a year.
-
76% said you are happy with the OTC
Journal being published about twice a week.
-
47% said you want more Profiles.
61.5% said you want more Trading Alerts.
Conclusions:
-
We will continue publishing about twice
a week.
-
We were pleased to learn most of our
members don't mind holding a stock for at least several months. Companies
take time to develop, and you're just cheating yourself by thinking too
short term.
-
You want more short term trading ideas,
and we will try to fill that need. The market is selling off everyday in
a climate of apathy. Many stocks are like coiled springs; the longer and
harder you hold them down, the harder they will bounce. We will have some
trading ideas when we feel the market is done blowing its brains out.
-
We will continue publishing features
on companies we are already following when they are trading at low risk
entry levels for those who wish to continue to accumulate for profits in
a better market.

XML
Global in the News Again- Momentum Continues |
 |
XML Global continues to gain
momentum with two major corporate developments this week. This is a clear
example of the value of picking bottoms in tough market conditions. As
depicted in the chart, the stock is up about 40% over the last 10 trading
days on the back of renewed OTC Journal coverage and fundamental
developments.
The motherlode for this company continues
to be an announcement concerning the successful completion of additional
financing, so that the company is properly capitalized. Until this event,
we still view the stock as a high risk/high reward investment, and still
believe it could see $1 before the end of the year.
On Thursday morning the company announced
the roll out of a new, low cost version of the software designed for desktop
applications. Preliminary sales of this product are going well, and a formal
introduction should bring enhanced results. Click
Here to read the full text of the press release.
After the market closed today, XML
Global announced the signing of a new contract with Uniboard,
the largest manufacturer of laminate flooring in North America. Since the
building industry is a shining star in today's tough economy, this company
must be doing well. As we have noted in the past, XML's software
solutions are at forefront of the revolution of technological innovation
which will allow corporate legacy systems to communicate with each other.
Therefore,
XML transformation is critical for companies like Uniboard
as
they streamline their computer's system ability to communicate with both
customers and suppliers. Again, this is more evidence XML Global's
future is improving.

Decorize
Inc (AMEX: DCZ) Quietly Climbing the Charts |
 |
Decorize was the subject of
a Trading
Alert on March 8th. The company has a 2000% growth rate, and recently
turned cash flow positive for the first time in corporate history.
Unfortunately, the stock opened higher
than our $4 suggested maximum entry level for that idea, but many of you
may have participated above $4, and some of you more astute traders may
have waited for a pullback to take a position.
Despite a brutal market, this stock
has been quietly climbing the charts as you can see from recent price action.
Our original Trading Alert centered around an annoucement the company had
a record $5 million backlog.
Yesterday the company announced its
backlog has now grown to $9 million, up from the $5 million
we covered on March 8th (just two months ago). In addition, the company
has since won Sear's "Partner in Progress" award. Sears is
one of their many Blue Chip customers.
Originally we were looking for a
move to $4.75. It appears to be happening now. $5 is probably
a good short term target for this stock, which is bucking market trends.
