SAFC, PPHM, BTHR & Extended Watchlist

We wanted to bring SAFC to your attention this morning, as a number of factors is causing us to keep a watchful eye. The company recently announced a share buyback program for the month of January wherein 1,000,000 shares will be bought at up to $0.20 per share. We are also seeing a stock coming off of a recent bottom; on Friday it rose 15% on light volume. This often indicates a tightly-held, low-float play, upon which any surge of buying can act as a catalyst for much larger increases.

It is for those reasons that we kick off our week keeping an eye on SAFC.

___

Peregrine Pharmaceuticals, Inc. PPHM

We’ve seen a lot from PPHM in the roughly 5 months we’ve been monitoring the stock. With our first mention coming on August 14th, and focusing more intently in the weeks that followed, we saw PPHM rise from the 1.80’s all the way up to 5.50 on Sept. 21st. It was at that time we observed a huge sell-off, in fact the stock has been as low as .68 as recently as November.

___

Big Three Restaurants, Inc. BTHR

BTHR was as low as .0012 when it appeared on our watchlist on Wednesday. On Friday the stock closed at the high-of-day of .0022, for a gain of 83% in just two day’s time.

Extended Watchlist:

ABAT, AMBS, BMSN, MWIP, VSUT, STOA, FOLD

BMSN, AMBS, AAPL & Extended Watchlist

BMSN has been like a rocket lately, blasting off since we first alerted the stock back on December 26th.We have seen five consecutive days of gains, with Monday’s action breaking a previous resistance point of .0021 and reaching a high of ,0024, before closing at .0016.Considering the momentum we witnessed over the past five sessions, we are expecting to see a pullback at some point. In such an event, we’d like to see the support hold off of the 50DMA of .001.

Our next key level of resistance is going to be at .0024. If it can get past that, the next level is .003, and .004 (200DMA).

Amarantus Bioscience, Inc. AMBS

We first began talking about AMBS on November 6th. Another one on a serious uptrend; in the past 14 days of trading, the stock has seen just two days of closing in the red.

AMBS will be co-hosting an international symposium , the #C4CT Concussion Awareness Conference, “with the purpose of bringing thought leaders in the field of Traumatic Brain Injury (“TBI”) drug and diagnostic research & development, professional athletes, former professional athletes and celebrity sports figureheads that share the Company’s, TCMG’s and Brewer’s desire to support research into new TBI treatments, sports leagues who have social and fiduciary responsibilities to improve player safety and caring for former players previously affected by TBI and cognitive disorders, as well as other key stakeholders in the ongoing social discussion regarding head injuries and their side effects.”

BARCHART.COM currently has AMBS rated a “100% Buy”

We had stated before that we were looking for a break past .13, and that it would bring us into bluesky breakout mode, and now that it has done so, we’re going to hold onto our hats, because there’s no telling where it could stop. We’d like to see .13 hold as the new base level of support.

___

Apple, Inc. AAPL

AAPL was as low as 510.24 on Dec. 21st, and dipping as low as 504.66 on December 27th. With all of the hype coming from “fiscal cliff” negotiations, Monday’s big rally (closed at 532.1729) has the stock trading close to 550.00 premarket today.
