ALERT INT (5)

Very interesting to note that Maxim Group was the underwriter of Vringo (VRNG) and especially more when you look at the business description of VRNG:

Vringo, Inc., a development stage company, provides a range of software products for mobile video entertainment, personalization, and mobile social applications. The company's products include the Video Ringtones product platform that allows users to create, download, and share mobile entertainment content in the form of video ringtones for mobile phones; and Facetones, which allows users to create social picture ringtone and ringback content in the form of animated slideshows sourced from friends’ social networks. Its products also comprise the Video ReMix, an application that allows a user to create own music video by tapping on a smartphone or tablet, in partnership with music artists and brands; and Fan Loyalty, a platform that allows users to obtain video and video ringtones, view information on certain reality television series, and stars and vote for contestants. The company was founded in 2006 and is headquartered in New York, New York

So it would appear to me that they know the market and would find the appropriate investors.

If this is not linked to an IPO in the states, i am wondering what else it could be. A private placement does not sounds like what INT had in mind as they already had a 20M$ offer on the table for Ortsbo initial offering.

I think that at this stage, ORTSBO and INT received a lot more attention in the USA and this is where they will be focused. That does not mean there will not be a RTO in Canada and a senior listing on the TSC but real money will not come from Canada.

To be followed

THE PLAY OF THE DAY (FTR)

This is Dividend Week

The last play of the week is a contrarian play. You should not be invested in too many like this one as it is often describe as the one being unable to maintain it's dividend.

Well, it is really difficult to believe that a company can maintain a 10% + dividend BUT is that because revenues are not there or is it because share price has been hammered since 1 year?

If that share price was to get back to 6$ the dividend rate will get down to about 6% and that would make the dividend rate substainable ? Strange way of looking at it...

This is why i think this is a contrarian play as my impressions are that there are no reason why FTR could not see it's dividend maintained AND also get a good share appreciation.

The market is definitely highly competitive but with a book ratio under 1, there is room for appreciation also. Revenues are still good as is profit.

So opening a small position could be very profitable but this may not be at this time the stock to get in at 100%. So a 30-40% of your expected position could be a great start but be very careful. Good dividend yield does not mean a fantastic return and only 1 week drop in share price could wipe out a year of dividend.

The Play Of the Day ARR (Armour Residential REIT)

This is dividend week

This play is from another REIT and it is a bit more toward residential hybrid mortage and variable rates but still insured by USA government. But being on variable mortgages, as long as rates will stay low, the profit will stay a bit low.

On the bright side, the dividend rate is incredible at 17% and paid MENSUALLY at the rate of 10 cents per share.

So if you are looking for a stock that pay a great rate and where the share price is pretty stable, ARR could be the one. Unfortunately one simple drop in share price could wipe out easily any short term profit so be prudent and do not invest all on this one (as usual)

PLAY OF THE DAY CHR.B (Chorus Aviation)

THIS IS DIVIDEND WEEK

In regard of dividend, this is one of my favorite with a juicy 18% dividend (at actual price).

At this price, it is a bit hazardous as i prefer a share price around 3$ but even then 18% dividend is a great deal.

Important to know also that today's drop is due to the fact that CHR.B is ex-dividend today for 15 cents.
The real question is: is this susbtainable??? I may suspect that CHR.B could cut the dividend in case of problem but even if it was cut in half, that would still mean a 9% return and still be very good.

The problem with those very high yield companies is that they tend to be very volatile and can wipe out 2-3 years dividend in a day. But this one has nothing to do with Yellow Media. Not the same market and not the same number of competitors.

The airline sector is not an easy one and not too many people have made money there over the year and this is why my strategy is the following for a stock like that:

I will buy about 50% of my position at actual level and will add more if it dips between 5-10% and a lot more if the dip is over 10% and that their dividend policy is unchanged.

There will be a lot more to discuss about Chorus Aviation but that is what you should discover by yourself (due diligence).

PLAY OF THE DAY LB (Laurentian Bank)

This is dividend week...

One of my favorite play in the dividend arena is Laurentian Bank for many reasons.

1) To the opposite of the first 3 majors canadian banks, Laurentian Bank is a lot smaller and a lot easier to expand. Doing banking business almost exclusively in the province of Quebec, they could expand and grow rapidly and agressively at least in the Toronto area without investing a lot where other Canadian banks would have to merge or go outside Canada.

2) They did made 2 major acquisitions since last year (AGF trust and MRS acquisition from Mackenzie Trust) and by doing so, increased their share of the mutual funds investments in Canada and especially in Quebec.

3) They have also increased their dividend 4 times during the last 24 months and their results are well over analysts estimations. From 0,36 in september 2010 to 0,47 in August 2012. This is a 33% dividend increase.

So LB is one of my favorite because it is offering a great dividend AND a major share value increase potential.

LB shares have increased by close to 12% recently and i would wait a bit for the next dip around 43$ or better. The shares are highly volatile due to the very low number of shares on the market. So be patient.

PLAY OF THE DAY AGNC (American Capital Agency)

This is dividend week. Remember that a great dividend could be wiped out rapidly if the stock does not hold it's value. Also very important to mention is the fact that when a stock issue it's dividend, the value will be adjusted to reflect the dividend issued. For example if AGNC is worth 32,00$ and this is the ex-dividend date, the value adjusted will be 30,55$ the day after (their quarterly dividend is 1,45$). Very important to remember that you MUST BE the owner of the stock to receive the dividend. So if the dividend date is the 15th you must have bought the stock 2-3 days before to ensure that the transaction is settled on the dividend date. This is why you will see the mention: Ex-dividend date: this is the last date where you can buy a stock and receive the dividend.

On the dividend play, AGNC is one of the most profitable and stable one in the REIT category.

To become and stay within the REIT area, AGNC must return to shareholders 90% of their gains and they are doing just fine.
The only problem with REITS is the fact that by remitting 90% of their profit, they cannot rely on house profit to increase share value but must constantly go out to the markets and issue more shares to finance themselve thus diluting their value.

When you will research REITS, be careful as there is 2 different main categories: the one where a good % of their loans are NOT guaranteed by any government agencies and the other category is fully insured limiting the losses. AGNC falls under the category where most of it's portfolio is USA insured.

ALERT FBP (First Bancorp)

Heavy volume today and still the power hour to go.

Something is definitely going on and could either be short covering or the government selling some again today. Rememeber that they had 100M shares to disposed of and they have mentionned they will at their own discretion dispose of them.

Surprisingly, share price had hold nicely.

Very interesting to watch as of now. The closing price will definitely indicate next week direction as if it closes over 3,95 it could be very bullish.

THE PLAY OF THE DAY MPEL (Melco Crown )

This stock has sufferred a lot in the past 3 months and with the news that it will restart the construction of it's casino 'Studio City' in Cotai, it's seems to prove that actual slower growth of Macau gambling results are only a temporary thing.

I will open a position at actual level as i think there is room to grow the stock well over 13$ in a medium term window.

THE PLAY OF THE DAY UUU (Uranium One)

It has been well above 1 year since the accident in Japan and still uranium price is suffering as do uranium producers share price.

I suspect that when that happened and with the sudden drop in uranium price, many did hedge against increase at a 50-60$ level avoiding uranium price to climb a lot higher. BUT this will start turning around because it is making really hard any new start up projects and actual supply may start being shrinking.

Any small increase in price will have positive consequences for actual mining company and UUU is one of the largest in the world.

So, if UUU starts hovering around 2,50, i am a buyer and i will start accumulating. Naturally i will take some profit off the table on any good share value increase but still keep a good chunk.

ALERT TVI (Tvi Pacific)

Based upon report, the Philippine Government should issue the new mining act this Friday.

This new mining act has been in need for a long time and has almost put all international mining projects on hold and TVI was no exception.

That being the case, this would signal the start of a good leg up for TVI share price.

At this time it is difficult to establish the impact of the new act in regard of taxes and delays for approving any new project but at least if that act goes out on friday as expected, well this is finally a great step in the right direction.

THE PLAY OF THE DAY AC.B (Air Canada)

Yes, again Air Canada and now with one dispute settled (machinist decision toward Air Canada offer) the next one to come will be most probably with it's pilots and pretty soon.

It will be interesting to see who's going to be the winner in that one. If Air Canada win that one also, well it will be the beginning for a nice leg up for Air Canada.

Looking at actual level 2 there is enough support between 1,00 down to 0,97 that i will be a buyer at current level (1,01) and expect AC.B to reach 1,10 rapidly enough to generate a nice return.

I will sell some at 1,10 BUT if it reaches 1,10 BEFORE the decision is made public in regard to the pilot's dispute, i would hold a bit longer as it could mean 1,15 (or more) if decision is leaning toward Air Canada offer.

THE PLAY OF THE DAY BZH (Beazer Homes)

If the market is what it looks like, the residential home market has bottomed and ready to start a great new leg up. It may find bumps along the road but overall it is going in the right direction and mostly has nothing to do with Europe...

Beazer is well positionned to secure a great return on investment. They have been hit really hard but yesterday it achieved a new 10 days high. Also on a technical note, the bollinger bands have not been so tight recently and this indicates most probably a volatility period to start and should be a good trading opportunity. Interesting to note that a bit over 10M shares were shorted (in total) at the end of may and if shorts have not covered their positions, we could face a short squeeze on any good news adding value to BZH.

Recently i have been a buyer of BZH at around 2,50 - 2,65 but with actual market conditions, i will open today a new position FOR ACCUMULATION unless there is a great share price increase in which case i would sell some to lower my acquisition cost.

THE PLAY OF THE DAY FBP (First Bancorp)

FBP had a great rally last friday (and very profitable) but i do not expect it to be long lasting.. It was too much too fast (almost 8% in the last hour) without any news. It was helped by a larger than usual volume for this period of the day.

So i will wait for it to retrace to 3,48 to 3,65$ level and will buy again for the next leg up.

FBP has been one of my favorite for short term play and accumulation at the same time (selling enough to recover price paid and the balance being free shares)

THE PLAY OF THE DAY ALZM (Allezoe Medical)

I know ...this is a OTC stock and at only 0.0125. So why this one???

Well this one double yesterday (almost with 77% increase) on good news about differents matters that were settle down favorably and on a fantastic volume. I expect to see even more volume today and at least another double to reach 0,025 if not higher.

So it looks like that ALZM is back in business and will likely sign 1 or 2 deals before month end to add up sales and profit.

Naturally this is a nice but QUICK trade. You get in early on this morning and you get out when your target profit % is achieve. DO NOT BE TOO GREEDY just in case it reverse course.

IF at the opening it is going back under 0,01 DO NOT PLAY YET!

THE PLAY OF THE DAY INT.TO (Intertainment Media)

Today is the informal meeting day in Markham for INT shareholders. INT will present their different brands and the technologies they are working on actually including the different investments that INT has already made.

It was originally supposed to be the annual shareholder meeting but because of delays in the RTO for Ortsbo, they simply cannot issue the proxy material and because a vote has to take place in regard of the transaction it has to be postponed.

So for the one that will be going there it will be very informal but surely interesting and this is why i will be closely monitoring that stock today as we never know what can happen at those meetings.

At actual price INT is almost only at 2 times the spin off dividend and represents a great opportunity for the mid term.

One final note for today: do not forget to have some cash aisdes for monday trading session as it could be totally weird and in all direction. So if you still have large profit on the table, it could be time to get some off and be ready.

THE PLAY OF THE DAY HBAN (Huntington Bancshares)

Very solid regional bank with more than 650 branches. It has resisted the storm, as of now, and could generate a good profit on the mid term.

Naturally any bad results in Greece this week-end could derail this one and most of the stocks but having nothing to do with Europe, this is one of the regional banks that could resist the most.

At the actual level, i would initaite a small position and add up more next week after the Greece election vote results.

This stock has been crushed recently and i am of the impression that this is due in large part to the debacle Facebook had.

I would not be surprise to see Zynga attract new customers with some of the new games they will be launching.

Do not forget also that Zynga has increase it's guidances in mid April.

So i think that Zynga is way oversold and ready to rebound nicely from the actual level.

THE PLAY OF THE DAY S (Sprint)

I think that Sprint has bottomed and even if profitability is not for tomorrow morning, the combination of Sprint and Iphone is something that makes me wonder if Sprint is not the underdog and that we could be going back toward profitability in early 2013.

That being the case it would make Sprint share looking cheap as they are right now and could lead to some very nice profit.

This is not a play for everyone and could lead to major capital losses but if you have some money left over from other gainers of the last weeks, this bet could be very profitable if you make a quick exit early on next week and if you have the nerves to play it right.

Well i think this says it all...

As with automakers and companies like DAN (Dana Holdings) they got it on the chin because of Europe and China slowing down BUT it is now totally oversold and i think today will prove the point for AXL.

I would wait a bit after the bell for market to stabilize to open a position on AXL but this is a great opportunity for a nice mid term profit.

UWN will be publishing it's quarter report within the next 2 weeks (date not confirmed yet) and i expect a nice surprise. The integration of the slot machine route acquired early this year will now have it's results reported for a full quarter.

Also it is interesting to note that UWN has repaid 800M$ from it's long term debt. So it could be a 2 fold surprise: better revenues and less debt.

At actual level (1,10-1,15$) it is a good starting point for accumulation and my target price is 1,75$

UPDATE on INT

WOW: INT stock have beend hammered recently and seems to move higher on news release then go down right after on a very very low volume. Any reason?

Short term traders. It has become very obvious that actual shareholders do not want to get rid of their shares until Ortsbo is released and yet to become shareholders wants to wait for more details especially how INT will drive revenues.

Even if total revenues are not the most important factor at this stage, it is very interesting to note that they still have increased dramatically year over year and at a faster pace than user numbers.

It is very important i think to understand that ORTSBO is a utility plug-in and that it's revenues may not come from the usuals channels like pay per click. WHY? Do you believe that users would be interested in seeing a pop up during their chat translation? I do not think so.

What i see as a bright future on the revenue side would be the licensing fees or usage fees. We all know that mobile communication is not generating revenue per user as high as regular office computing and therefore must be adressed before any major release to avoid year over year revenue decrease because of increasing mobile usage. That would be a non-sense.

So what is the solution: license it. The product is great, in over 50 languages and could easily expand to well over that number pretty rapidly. If they have the matrix working from french to english and japanese i do not expect any problem using the same matrix to increase the number of potential languages even if increasing that number to 80 may not be as cost efficient because the extra languages may not be the one that are used the most.

The best improvement should be the adaptation of the translator to different meaning based upon interpretation and this is a challenge that nobody that i know has been able to achieve.

Licensing the aoo to manufacturers could be interesting. If you go around your home devices at this moment, most of them have 3-8 languages pre-programmed for a friendly usage. So it means to me that anytime the same product is developped for another country the language chipset has to be reprogrammed again and again. How many chipset programming do they need? 10, 15 more ???

It would be easily replace with only 1 and a lot of savings right there.

Think about the new rule to force close captionned for tv programming .

How many languages are offered on a dvd? With all the new technology allowing firmware updates from internet, a BluRay reader could easily download the app and add 53 langauges to any movie already produced.

The applications are endless.

One last point, with the coming Ortsbo spin off, INT MUST make it a success for another reason than the obvious one: When it is done INT will have created a 300-500M$ company in less than 2-3 years from the early stage.

This fact alone will attract new opportunities and MANY more startup companies that will trust the capacity of INT to create interesting and profitable companies and that is something that i do not see very often.

So hang in there as there is simply no logical reason to sell before we know more details on the upcoming events for INT.

Disclosure: I am long INT and have no intention to sell any of my position and could increase it depending upon market situation.

PLAY OF THE DAY GSS (Golden Star Resources)

A small mining company in West Africa with a nice trading range from around 1$ to 1,40.

Their frist quarter revenues were higher by 10% and it did generates close to 18M$ in cash from operation altough a bit lower than last year.

The only problem is the cost per ounce that seems a bit high but under control.

I would not bet the farm on this one but it could be a good investment on the short term. I would only wait today to see if the price stabilize and then open a modest position and keep some money on the side in case of a price drop.

PLAY OF THE DAY BAC (Bank of America)

This is i think a very good SHORT to MEDIUM TERM play.

They have been hammered by the recent market volatily and now have a book value comparable to a regional bank (around 0,35) beeing very very low.

Actually the world markets are all in a very negative mood and BAC did suffered a lot from that situation. It is certain that big banks will not generate as much profit as they were many years ago but to evaluate BAC at 0,35 of book value is also far from reality and real value.

So at this level i am in with an exit price around 8,00$ but be really patient as it could be very volatile again for another 2 weeks or more depending of Greece election outcome.

THE PLAY OF THE DAY GPL (Great Panther Silver)

I know i have already mentionned this company but with today's reaction to job report, it seems pretty clear that the only one that will benefit from that will be precious metal producers and GPL is a pure silver play.

For Great Panther, anything under 1,80 is a great play as it tends to climb back somewhat rapidly to the 1,90-1,95$ level.

It is a great way to accumulate on this company. By taking some profit off the table you end up having free shares and when you do that on solid corporations, that is really great.

As usual do not invest more than you can afford to lose and always do your own due diligence before investing in any stock.

WITH THE RECENT MARKET VOLATILITY ALWAYS MAKE SURE YOU TAKE SOME PROFIT AS SOON AS YOUR TARGET IS ACHIEVE TO AVOID SMALL LOSSES BECOME LARGER AND FORCE YOU INTO SELLING AT THE LOWEST PRICE.
