Veritec, Inc. – VRTC – Today’s Stock

Veritec, Inc. VRTC

Despite the markets being down 240pts yesterday, VRTC managed to rattle off a 22% gain following our maiden alert on 4 1/2 times its ten day average volume (total of 34,490). Much of this activity was buying- out of all the shares traded, only 1000 shares were traded at the bid, leaving the purchase to sale ratio at roughly 33:1.

In addition to news out this morning, we noticed that BARCHART.COM changed its “opinion” of VRTC from yesterday, moving the stock’s designation from Sell to Buy overnight.

GOLDEN VALLEY, Minn., Nov. 22, 2011 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ — Veritec, Inc. (OTC: VRTC) today announced that their patent portfolio has reached 20 worldwide patents. As a technology company, Veritec has built a considerable presence in the fields of two-dimensional Matrix Symbology, Secure identification for people and products, Secure financial transactions, and Multi-purpose cards or mobile devices that facilitate financial transactions and other applications. Veritec’s recent Partnership Agreement with National Identity Solutions (NIS) of Norcross, Georgia and with Antero Payment Solutions Inc. of Harbor City, California will benefit from the strong technology position held by Veritec.

Republic of Texas Brands Inc RTXB

This stock has been garnering some attention lately, so we thought we see what the buzz was about. RTXB is another play receiving a “Buy” designation from BARCHART.COM.

Much like VRTC, we like the pattern of the RTXB chart, with indications that the stock is sitting at a relative bottom, and recent history showing that it can surge from the current level of .015 to .025 and better fairly quickly.

Added Note: Having recently gone through a name and symbol change, some of you may know this play as LJWY.

Stay tuned for regular updates on the status of this new pick. As we stated, we will be following its activity closely.

BIOF, ICNM – Today’s Stocks

BioFuel Energy Corp. BIOF

BIOF hit a high of 1.10 on Thursday, a 10% gain. Although we are still sitting on the sidelines with this one, so far during our coverage of the stock, there have been several opportunities for flippers to have a field-day with BIOF.

Yesterday alone saw a 22% run from .90 to 1.10, dipped back to .85, and closed at .97, for an added chance at another 14%

In our opinion, the party isn’t quite over for these ethanol related stocks due to the current conditions affecting ethanol futures.

Icon Media Holdings, Inc. ICNM

ICNM opened at .07 on Thursday, and subsequently hit a high if .095, a sweet 35% gain. We are glad when our new picks fare well on the first day of coverage, as it can sometimes take a few days.

Volume was great yesterday, and it appears as if there is solid support at .07, which we would like to see the stock hold going into the weekend. We do have key resistance at .10, which will be the major hurdle to get over moving forward.

PEIX, BIOF, ICNM – Today’s Stocks

BioFuel Energy Corp. BIOF & Pacific Ethanol, Inc. PEIX

BIOF was a nice overnight gainer for us, racking up a 55% increase.
Our first alert came the day before yesterday at 3pm; the stock was trading at .80 at the time. Yesterday the stock gapped up and ran strong out of the gate, hitting a high of 1.24.

We hopped on BIOF because we saw the surge from PEIX and though these two companies aren’t affiliated, they have a connection of being in the same space.

We want to keep these two on our radar moving forward. For now we are sitting on the sidelines waiting for a pullback.

Our confidence in these Ethanol related stocks stems from our confidence in the corn-based biofuel itself. With federal mandates requiring higher ethanol blending rates in gasoline, and associated tax credits set to expire by the end of the calendar year, ethanol futures are hot right now, and should remain so for the foreseeable future. We should also see demand increasing steadily leading into the 2015 deadline for total compliance with the new mandates.

For these reasons we will certainly be keeping PEIX and BIOF on our radars going forward.

Icon Media Holdings, Inc. ICNM

ICNM is a fairly thinly traded stock with current support levels at .03, and resistance at .10 and .11. The next resistance points following those appear to be .145 and .16. As of recently, there has been some light accumulation, and because of the light volume and tight share structure (21M in float, 101M O/S) any little bit of buying can bring rapid PPS swings.

RALEIGH, NC, Nov 17, 2011 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) — Icon Media Holdings, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: ICNM) announced today that the Company has launched a storefront on Amazon Canada. This particular venue has been successfully in operation for the last four months under the brand name “Punt Dog Posters.” Product add-ons such as framing and laminating are also being offered, allowing for higher average order values.

The storefront can be found at http://tinyurl.com/7hbwx3q.

ICNM owns and/or operates e-commerce websites that offer both new and classic movie posters and custom framing at retail. The company runs numerous websites, as well as selling their products on third party storefronts such as Amazon, Amazon UK and eBay, among others.

BIOF, ALCL, DGHG – Today’s Stocks

BioFuel Energy Corp. BIOF

We jumped on BIOF just in the nick of time, sending out an alert at 3pm yesterday when the stock was trading at .80. We thought there might be some juice left to carry us to the closing bell and sure enough, we were correct in our assumption. The stock then hit .89 before settling in at .85. If post market trading up to .905 is an indicator, we could see the stock open up with continued momentum.

Ethanol prices are breaking records, which is a very good thing for companies like BioFuel Energy. Have a look at this article talking about just that.

Atlas Capital Holdings Inc ALCL

ALCL enjoyed a 36% intraday gain on Tuesday following our premarket alert. Yesterday the stock enjoyed the highest trading volume it has seen since early September, at which time the stock was trading as high as the .07-range.

ALCL, coming off of a relative bottom is going to continue to hold our attention. If the activity and momentum keeps up, we may be in store for some more nice intraday gains just as we witnessed yesterday. There’s also some news out this morning:

BOCA RATON, FL, Nov 16, 2011 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) — Atlas Capital Holdings Inc. (OTCQB: ALCL) (OTCBB: ALCL) (the “Company”) announced today that it has entered into a Warrant Purchase Agreement with Innovative Funding Solutions (IFS). Under the terms of the agreement, IFS has committed to provide up to $500,000 of equity capital over the next twelve months in exchange for warrant coverage equal to one and a half times the funding provided at an exercise price of $0.085.

Diversified Global Holdings Group, Inc. DGHG

DGHG has made some great moves for us since our original alert back on September 13 @ 1.16 at which time the stock gained momentum and pushed to 1.29, before falling back to .71. From the low at .71 to the current price of 1.50, that’s a total possible gain of 111%, and a 29% overall gain from our original alert.

All in all DGHG has been quite a performer, and has satisfied us on several occasions. With no previous reference at this price level, there is still no telling how high DGHG could carry.

Should another pullback occur, it would be ideal to see support hold at the previous resistance point of 1.29.
