Penny Stock Picks
Penny stocks picks are specifically chosen investments usually selected by investing professionals. These handpicked stocks are chosen after their companies have been carefully researched and reviewed.
Penny stock picks can also be chosen by individuals already familiar with investing. When looking for good penny stock picks, one should always follow the company for a few weeks, review their corporate history, and familiarize themselves with the company’s products / services.
Penny stocks are any shares that are traded anywhere between a fraction of a penny up to five dollars. Penny stock picks makes investing easy and accessible for practically anyone. Investing in these types of stocks is riskier than most average investments, but with that also comes the potential for a high reward. There are not many other situations where a small investment can later be turned around into a fortune. Along with this, it allows people to own a stake of a company for the fraction of the price compared to other stock investments. But investor beware, there have been cases where these stocks have gone from a few cents to over $20, and other cases where they have lost all value.
The downside of these stocks is the risk, instability, and lack of information from the corporation. Today, it is known among investors that penny stocks represent the many small companies all across the United States that are in the process of growing and have yet to be discovered.
Good penny stocks picks are associated with companies that appear the same as any other successful company; the only difference is they are smaller. They will have a strong and experienced management team, solid numbers, and will be providing a great service or product. If there isn’t much information available about a company, calling and speaking to their investor relations representative can provide additional information. Compare the company with their competitors along with other investment options that you can look into.
Good penny stock picks belong to companies that have high potential to grow over the years, and will be able to climb dramatically in price. This is where those who trade with penny stocks have make big financial gains for a small starting investment.
Taking the time to learn about penny stocks and finding smart penny stock picks will lead to discovering good companies. Understand how to avoid negatives and the pitfalls associated with trading penny stocks are some of the steps to help turn initial investments into huge profits in the long run. Many times investors will put their money into stocks without fully understanding what they are investing in or how to properly trade stocks. More likely than not, this will lead to investors losing the money they put in. Becoming well informed before hand and making wise penny stock picks will assist in avoiding bad plays and dangerous moves in the market. Reviewing and thoroughly checking out a company will in most cases lead to smart plays and good choices in penny stock picks.
When investing in penny stock picks, it is best to get started sooner rather than later. This usually will ensure you can get started with a company at the lowest price and in the end get the most returns when investing in them.

Speculating Stocks Take on the AAPL
Apple (AAPL) is looking to replace the netbook groundswell with the iPad craze. Eventually, it is conceivable that the iPad replaces even the laptop for many people.

The iPad would also be cloud computing friendly and fit into the cloud computing wave that could be upon the masses shortly. Cloud computing will need cloud service and who better to offer cloud service than Apple?
The iPad may be characterized as a “giant iPhone” by most, but don’t be fooled one second. The iPad is a calculated product in Apple continuing its dynasty. Apple is putting together a mobile computing dynasty that has slowly assimilated more and more PC users to their platform through the iPod and iPhone. The iPad will now take away some of the time that users spend on their Windows 7 powered laptops and PCs.
It has been speculated that the iPad could remake the print, TV, and publishing business in a similar way as how iTunes remade the music industry. Once again, it’s just version 1 of the iPad and we believe it goes up from there.
For those who have tried the Kindle, it was a first mover in the eReader space, but it looks like a dinosaur now compared to AAPL’s iPad. Those who have a Kindle will probably still buy books through it and then just use the Kindle App on the iPad to actually read the books. That’s one great use for the iPad depending on how much a person is into reading books on an eReader.

It is speculated that the iPad (3G version) will have support for Slingbox® so iPad users can watch TV while away from WiFi. This would occur through a Slingbox® app. AT&T just recently started allowing iPhone users to Slingbox® their TV to their phones over their 3G network.

The iPad will be a lot easier to browse the Web on while relaxing than on an iPhone or Laptop.
The iPad will not be for everyone, but it will find its niche and go from there. As for Apple’s stock, there is no reason why AAPL shouldn’t keep moving higher. As long as Steve Jobs stays healthy and at the helm, the sky is the limit for Apple.

Take on the iPad
There is no doubt that the Apple iPad is a hot topic. Apple will ship their iPad on April 3rd. Commercials for the iPad have begun with spots during the Oscars Sunday night.
Many people have already asked themselves if they need or even want this less-than-apple-like device. Apple has great marketing and they will get a plethora of people to buy something that they don’t really need. The combination of stunning, sexy design and astoundingly brilliant marketing by Apple is why they have around a $200 billion market cap. In comparison, Microsoft, a long rival of Apple, has around a $250 billion market cap. Remember, Apple almost went extinct due to poor management throughout the 1990’s while Steve Jobs was at Pixar.
Not a huge amount of people will “need” the iPad. Some will have a specific use for the iPad which will make it worth buying for them.
One important fact that people should know about Apple is that they believe that shipping the product is most important. As Steve Jobs has stated in the past, “Real Artists Ship.”

The iPad shipping on April 3rd and the 3G iPad shipping shortly after are just version 1. Apple will improve the iPad and it will most likely fit brilliantly into a greater strategy down the road that Steve Jobs has already envisioned.

China is the major investor of over 10 billion into Angola.
China is the major investor of over 10 billion into Angola. They are building skyscrapers, highways, a railway system across Africa and a few hospital/schools…etc. China recently invested in several western African countries, Somalia, Sudan, Nigeria just to name a few the UN has on its list for violations of human rights by the aforementioned governments. Africa clearly has a HUGE amount of non-durable supplies and natural resources. Typically, Western investments (government not dual tax treaty “invisible private equity tax haven investments”) come with human rights conditions and anti corruption financial oversight policies. China has what is called Sovereign Political respect or something like that. In summary it means China will not interfere or question the human rights policies, such as the documented ethnic cleansing in Somalia and Sudan as it expects those nations to return the favor. It would be humorous if there were not atrocities and crimes against humans being currently being carried out presumably by the leaders of these nations. What makes it even more absurd is that China is brining over its own laborers to build the skyscrapers, build the highways and expand the railroads. There are an estimated 100,000 Chinese (the vast majority temporary laborers) currently in Angola alone. Can anyone say MASSIVE financial corruption? In Rwanda, 500,000 people were executed in 30 days, mostly by machete creating a new precedence for the number killed in a genocide in relation to the days the atrocities were carried out. The country has barely begun to recover only to be targeted by the new imperial invasion. What’s even more frightening is this same government owns the majority of the debt issued by our always humorous government. With China warning of regional bank risk could we see bank failure there and could this spurn a run on the banks? Now this would be fascinating with the Yuan pegged to the dollar. Definitely not what we expect or would like to see, but the idea has to be mulled over. China just stated it has instructed local governments not to support the bailout of investment arms. It’s uncertain if this will cause bank failures and if so how China will react. I guess you can’t run on a bank with tanks in front of it?
Now there is still a considerable amount of cash on the sidelines. Of course, the smart money “informed money” sold out of real estate and stocks at their highs. Now it sits awaiting the latest round of bubble silliness to drive up only to have the lemming bankers buy out the positions and left holding the bag. Of course the bankers spread this lovely debacle on to their retail clients like a disease through the analyst’s recommendations. A vicious cycle we would like you to get ahead of thus our recommendation to buy non-durable goods exporting nations index funds and the US stock market in “recession and inflation” resistant sectors. The war machine will continue for a while as the last great US manufacturing sector where we have an edge on the World. I’m guessing Taiwan will be buying some more jets and missiles as a statement was issued that China now has air superiority. Boeing will trade up most likely on sale of 20 737’s to Turkish airlines. Short Precision Biosciences as US Patent offices issued a second actions rejection of a previously granted claim to Cellectis’ Core technology. So long Cellectis if it’s publicly traded or buy on dips if the open is coming in too high. Ticker is ALCLS on the CAC “or Paris” but can be purchased though Euronext DJ. Trading now up…

More on Latin America, Penny Stocks and Stock Picks
I recommend watching programming on the channels G4, BBC, and Current. There is a fresh perspective in the documentaries those channels produce and the news is based upon user feedback from an international audience. Not your typical scare and fear brainwashing news about local death, taxes and celebrities. You will find parodies of all these that are quite entertaining. Many investing and research projects we undertake find their origins from watching international trends, progressive social networking on advanced platforms and from our international partners and subsidiaries.
A portion of our stock picks are companies that start out as penny stocks. Some of the companies that are players in the Latin American Sector start as the best penny stocks in our opinion. The platform that we have developed is quite unique combining the power of information to those who are most interested in it. The fact is that the best place to currently put your money is in performing sectors of the US stock market. With China tightening banking reserves and loan policy and raising the interest rate to stave of inflation, it is imperative to closely monitor the world economies. While we have an internal debacle in our banking sector as the typical conservative nature when faced with any economic crisis leads to the “Ostrich Syndrome”. So we know clichés are not appropriate but the Ostrich is known when afraid to find a hole in the ground and stick its head into the hole. This often results in an easy kill. So these means the Stock Market will stay in a fairly good trend unless some unknown crisis hits. Never the less there are always sectors that out perform any market as we have identified some trends for long and short positions in the market.
TODAY’S market looks pretty good as most Asian markets closed up with some good Corporate earning coming in. The US Stoxx 600 index was up on trading a good sign for US Markets. European markets are up despite Greece continuing to be a problem. It’s really crazy to look at all the countries in the EU cooperating. Spain, Portugal, and Ireland are all looking at debt issues with banks increasing shying from buying debt. Even the US is considered risky b/c of the banking issues I detailed earlier. It’s unlikely that Greece won’t get bailed out, but it’s a very shifty world. Beta is high and the volatility signs are showing in many areas.
So expect US up and go to speculatingstocks.com for investment information. We always attempt to blend a mix of world news, travel, entertainment and investment information as we peruse the world as we actually believe it to be.
