A new platform is born from INT

Very interesting release this morning from Intertainment Media announcing a new platform where you will be able to chat in respect of your preferred topic AND without any language barrier.

For the past many months we have seen Ortsbo concentrating on business development and many investors were under the impression that the personal user segment was gone for good.

Well I must admit that I was taken by surprise this morning when INT  announce the birth of ''YAPPN'' .

That new platform seem to have all of INT trial test done over the last many months combined into 1 single place.

Those used to do some DD on Ortsbo must remember Fantalk where you were able to have a look at tweets or Facebook messages from other fans around the world and automatically translated into your own language. It was fun BUT it was missing something: you were unable to chat with those people. Based upon the release of today, it would seem that they found a way around that problem and that with the new platform you will be able to chat with all of those fans in your own preferred language.

Interestingly also is the fact that it is kind of a join venture where Ortsbo (INT) will get 60% revenue sharing.

This news release is really good and it is indicating that INT is still developing and testing new products.

How about the release also yesterday of the agreement with one of the major call centers to use Ortsbo Platform for their customer care business. Naturally no value was indicated and I must say that for competition reasons I would tend to agree with INT in that regard and we will see after Q1 release if it did increase revenues and by how much. My guess is that this simple contract will increase revenues by 100% over the year.

So with only 2 news release, INT / Ortsbo have now indicated that they have the intention to dominate the automatic translation world in the general public AND commercial area.

Will it help the share price. Yes it will and I would not be surprised to see a nice POP within a couple of trading days.

As usual do not invest more than you can afford to loose and it is always prudent to take some profit off the table whenever it happen.

UPDATE DRL (Doral Financial)

This is getting interesting. For the past couple of weeks, DRL was almost seem to be in a very narrow trading range with relatively slow average trading volume.

Not sure about this one but it seems that yesterday the volume picked up mid afternoon and ended up over the infamous 0,70 that we have seen very often.

This morning we see some pre-opening volume that does not make the usual day for DRL and again with a higher pre-opening price.

May not mean a lot BUT remember that BPOP did a great profit during the last quarter and its shares went up dramatically yesterday well above what I could have expected as being a great day.

Now, what is that volume and pop up in price for DRL ??? Is this a leak (they will release quarter numbers on the 28th) or short covering in case of a great quarter???

What was interesting from BPOP results is the lowering of provisions for bad debts and this could affect positively DRL also.

One thing is sure, with the nice profit realized by BPOP, if DRL does not show the same kind of improvement, well they maybe in big trouble BUT  if they were to disclose a meaningful profit then it could be the start of a great stretch upward.

I will paly a bit the momentum that seems to be happening now and will most probably get some out before the numbers are release just in case and still make a good profit (in my opinion).

As usual, do not invest more than you can afford to lose and always take some profit when possible.

UPDATE INT.TO

Well, the least we can say is that it is exceptionally quiet at this time with Intertainment Media and especially in the wait for updates on contracts that everybody are waiting for.

It has been a long time since INT has promise news about contracts to be signed that will generate good revenues.

It is very curious not having hear from them in a long time and I suspect that things are still moving in the right direction and until the actual placement is close we will not get finally what we all expect: profit generating contracts.

The shares have been hammered down since last year with some rapid up's that traders could have used to make a quick profit and at the same time reducing the core base cost.

INT is a venture play meaning that it is a start-up company with all the risks that do comes with a tech company.

I do still think that this could be a great profit generator this year for the shareholders that have been patient for a long time and that ANY new contract will change the share price instantly moving it higher in a blink.

Naturally the last time it hits 3$ INT did not had that many shares so 1,50$ would be a great achievement and this number is easily achievable: they need 1 or more profitable contracts and that would do the trick.

Will INT succeed: yes they can and now the ball is in the management team.

As usual do not invest more than you can afford to lose and it is always safe to cash in some profit when the occasion arise.

ALERT UUU.TO

I have been supporting that company for a long time and knew that uranium spot price will get back to a more acceptable price in the next 12-18 months.

This morning UUU advised us that they will go private for a meager 2,86$ per share.

That offer is far below the real value of UUU.TO and anything under 4$ should not even be considered.

I will definitely say NO to this one even if chances of blocking the deal are minimal.

When you get your special shareholder meeting material, be sure to follow the instructions and vote.
