NEOM

Upwards to 30K subscribers to Tobin Smith's, "ChangeWave Investing" received an email after the close of trading on Thursday, pumping a penny stock that was not identified in the email. In order to learn the identity of what Toby terms, "Your Turn for 1,000% Profits," you have to take a trial subscription to his service, "ChangeWave Microcaps."

Or, you can read today's AllAllan Blog.

In his enthusiasm for this stock opportunity, Toby left enough clues on the table for me to identify this stock. I suspect that between his ChangeWave subscribers who also figured it out, and those who upon reading the pump decided to sign-up for the service, that there will be a pop in the stock on Friday, maybe carrying through to next week. So here we go again. Remember, SGMO went from $5.85 to over $8.00 on the strength of a similar campaign by Porter Stansbury's outfit.

First, some snippets from Toby's hype:

I've attached two things to this e-mail:

1. The note I sent to subscribers about this stock (with the name written as XXXXX - it wouldn't be fair to them to name it here).

I'm writing because all our research suggests there's another 1,000% upside from here. This is your second (and probably last) chance to join this ten-bagger club. Got a little risk capital burning a hole in your pocket? If this works out as we expect, you'll make a fortune.

2. A longer message I sent previously to the ChangeWave family about this stock. We're in this one to win big-time. But you must act fast before the rest of the world catches on.

What's happening with XXXX now XXXX is using the strength of their patents to "roll up" the privately held mobile marketing world. By this time next year, they will be the undisputed leader in delivering technology and marketing services to cell phones. Their strategy is simple: You either agree to pay royalties and licensing fees to XXXX on its patents that enable marketing over the Internet to mobile phones... ...or we'll buy you out IF you can help us become the dominant player faster.

Right now you can steal this stock under 30 cents - that's my signal for "Back up the truck and BUY." Then hold on for a wild ride to $5 or more.

This company's PaperClick technology takes your cell phone... ...and transforms it into a "magic wand" that connects you instantly, anywhere you want to go on the Internet. Make a purchase... read product reviews... make your dinner reservation... watch a movie trailer... enter a contest... get an coupon... sample a song... instantly.

And I believe it can QUINTUPLE your money from here - and that's just to start.

I can't guarantee your profits on this pick. I believe we'll get to $1.50 per share (from 28 cents today) before long, but I can't
guarantee it. After all, this is still a fledgling company that still faces a number of obstacles. That's the name of the game when you're own home-run-capable microcaps.


Now the stock: NEOM

Confirmation: Much of Toby's hype comes directly from a series of press releases from the company web site.

VLNC

Meant to post this earlier, when VLNC was still under $2.00, but stuff happened. Better late then never.

From Briefing.com:

VLNC Valence Tech: Alternative Energy Investing Commentary (1.99
+0.06)


General Electric Co., the world's second-biggest company by market value, said its finance unit will provide credit to customers purchasing Segway Inc.'s Human Transporter scooters. Segway represents +50% of VLNC sales. The credit program will begin June 1, 2006 and is expected to further accelerate Segway's sales in the coming months. Segway's scooters are battery-operated, two-wheeled vehicles designed to operate where people walk. More than 125 law enforcement agencies use Segway HT models, the company said. Segway has attributed their +50% growth rate to their decision to switch batteries reducing the weight and charge-time necessary while dramatically increasing run-time. In the past year, Segway switched from NiCAD batteries which required 8-hours of charge-time and provided only 4-hours of runtime to Valence Saphion lithium-ion batteries which require 4-hours of charge-time and provide 8-hours of runtime weighing half as much. VLNC earnings call is scheduled for June 13th 2006. AEI is expecting the company to continue to improve on its financial metrics and gain exposure among institutional investors as the company's newly retained PR firm spreads the word. AEI is also expecting more news from the company on development programs including receiving development contracts expected to be handed out by the US Advanced Battery Consortia this fall. AEI also expects that VLNC stock will move up as the company announces new commercial relationships including European and Asian customers including additional motive power applications and plug-in HEVs.

SGMO

Here's the hype: http://tinyurl.com/qx3st

The stock that is being hyped will be identified by this newsltter service after the close of trading today (May 25th). But it looks to me like it's Sangamo Biosciences Inc. (SGMO):

Our Technology Focus
Sangamo is focused on the research and commercial development of engineered DNA-binding proteins for the regulation of gene expression and for gene modification. The basis of our proprietary technology is the engineering of a naturally occurring class of transcription factors, zinc finger DNA-binding proteins (ZFPs). When linked to functional domains that normally activate or repress gene expression, we create ZFP transcription factors (ZFP TFs) capable of turning genes on or off. ZFPs can also be linked to nuclease domains to create zinc finger nucleases (ZFNs). Engineered ZFNs can modify genomic DNA at a preselected location facilitating either correction or disruption of a specific gene.

Bird Flu, Round 2

I'm watching the PIstons-Heat-Ducks-Oilers so no time for links, but human to human transmission is being reported in Indonesia. As a result, two stocks in our bird flu basket, NVAX and BCRX were up about 15% late today. This could be the beginning of Round 2 in bird flu investing opportunities. The names we like are in the archives, just do a bird flu search of this blog. I bought more NVAX late today as soon as I saw the news on brieifing, paying $4.55/share. It closed in after-hours trading at $5.29. If this is another round of bird flu stock speculation, it is still early and 15% or better runs per day will be the norm. Back to the games.

Portfolio Hack

Portfolio hacked to a bloody, trembling, shadow of its former self? Maybe this will help:

YTD James J. Cramer's Action Alerts Portfolio = -1.07%
YTD S&P 500 Index = +1.07%

We all can't be geniuses.

TIE

Harold Simmons is at it again, bought 200,000 shares of TIE today (Thursday). That's $6.8M of stock. I saw Sally's Alert come in after hours and was able to buy some TIE about $31/share. Simmons' average price was $34.24. Don't mind being on the same side of a trade with this guy.

Open Letter from Robert Taylor

I received this email from Robert Taylor over the weekend. He is looking for marketing help. I am no expert here, but maybe one of you is, or know someone who is. In any case, Bob gave me permission to go public with his dilemma, so lets see what surfaces that might help him spread his word. As I have written here, I am impressed with his published market timing forecasts, or I wouldn't be doing this.

Allan,

I am impressed by the number of individuals who obviously were interested in what you had to say in your blog site about my book and forecasts. These individuals subsequently placed orders to buy Paradigm from my website. Thank you for your efforts.

I am perplexed though. I have spent the last eighteen years in aerospace system identifications research and one other scientific project. The one you already know about, and the other project is in the science of nuclear electron power generation.

The problem is I simply don't comprehend how to use the power of the internet as for a promotional method in selling products. The product I am talking about is my book Paradigm.

I have wanted for years to bring to the public my concepts about the predictability of financial markets, and did so in Paradigm, but the larger concept, and just as interesting as gravitational fluctuations and financial markets, was to apply this logic to other sciences such as geo-physics, medicine, psychology, personal fitness, criminal behavior, weather patterns and many other human behavior fields where I found the same correlation as I found with financial markets.

In my book Paradigm my goal was to publish my discovery "The Taylor Effect" essay in order to fulfill my obligations to be eligible for the Nobel Prize nomination, and in addition bring attention and a logical conclusion which is to use gravitational fluctuations as a model for understanding human behavior.

Simply put, I wanted to open the path for other specialist in many scientific fields to have available the ability to correlate gravitational fluctuations with each scientist's historical data, which should enable these scientists the ability to use my discovery to forecasts future events in their respective fields.

My question is, do you know of anyone who could help me reach massive amounts of individuals over the internet who might be interested in purchasing my book. I had originally thought of selling the forecasts subscriptions for profit, but if I can sell enough books to help offset my 18 year research project, I would just simply give the forecasts away for free from now on. You know one of my goals is to teach as many people as possible how to profit in the market without the need for assistance from large brokerage firms.

Let me know your thoughts. Again, thanks for your kind words and help.



Best regards,

Bob
