SOFO's Chairman/CEO bought shares after its positive turn around earning release. Very positive sign. http://finance.yahoo.com/q/it?s=SOFO Any price at or lower than his price is a good buy. Entry point between $1 to $1.2.

Due to the recent M&A activities of websites, such as MySpace.com for $580M and Topix.net for $20M, we should see positive movements in Web Hosting related stocks. Among web hosting stocks, the most reputable two that are currently undervalued are SVVS and IIP. SVVS's reseller LayeredTech is currently rated #1 in dedicated servers. They constantly deliver reliable servers and networks at low price. It is rare to see a single homed reseller to win webmasters hearts. LayeredTech's growth started last year after EV1 and The Planet. LT switched from reselling both TP and SVVS to only SVVS. So their growth is not yet priced into SVVS. We believe SVVS should at least see $1 to meet its requirement for listing, or 40% gain from it current level at 70c. IIP's servers are expensive, but the reputation is "If you can afford it, you should buy servers in Internap." We expect less gains on IIP, because traditionally the one with pricing power usually do better.

MDSI with hidden value. Easy to double in 6 months. MDSI is providing wireless workplace solutions. For the nine months ended 9/30/03, revenues rose 34% to $36.4 million. Net loss from continuing operations decreased 85% to $313 thousand. IBM managers last month said, IT spending are picked up. Wireless solutions are hot in 1999-2000, but never picked up then, because PDAs were expensive. Right now, US companies shift jobs overseas and its productivity per person is up 10-20% 2003 from 2002. Companies need to increase this number more. MDSI is located in BC, Canada, which is very close to Seattle, Washington. Two big companies Microsoft and Amazon.com both need MDSI products. Microsoft developed PocketPC, and love to test drive its mobil applications for workplace in house. Amazon.com is a big warehouse. Workers need to communicate from different part of the warehouse in real time. Recently, MDSI also reports several new job openings, a great sign for growing business. http://www.mdsi-advantex.com/careers/JobResults.asp MDSI's Price/Book value is less than 2. Price/Sale ratio is less than 0.8. 13M net cash. This is a company with little down turn risk, and will enjoy bullish economy. Since it is in red hot wireless IT area, when it turns to profitable, its P/E should be above 40, P/S should be above 2. If they have $2M income 2004, the price of this stock should be in $10 range. An easy double within 6 months. Update on 2004/01/21 it ran up from 4.8 to 5.5, 2 days after our pick released to the public. We feel the near term price target is already met.

LOOK: buy below 1.5 now and sell above 2 within 12 weeks. We have insight (not inside) information on LOOK. We collected LOOK's current and new contract information from several search engine review and webmaster talk sites. The info is not available to Press Release, but extremely valuable for analyzing companies within AD world. Many institutional investors bought LOOK above $3 before Sep 30th, when MSN breakup was already predicted. That shows big fund managers are confident on LOOK to go above $3, otherwise they would buy LOOK after it fell on the news of MSN after Oct 29th. LOOK's most recent Q earning and new deal with BellSouth also confirmed our findings. Too know what we know and most investors do not know, you can pay $20 for a copy of our research on LOOK. Please email speedierco AT yahoo.com for more info. Update 2004/01/16, We let our paying members sell on 13/14 at 2.2.

AMZN: short above 55 now and cover below 40 within 12 weeks. update on 11/26: AMZN's most recent run-up is due to the winning against BN.com and renewed deal with Borders.com. It is also a strong holiday season. However, AMZN only made profits less than 6 months. We have not seen AMZN's ADs anywhere for long time. Its equity is negative. Its debt is more than its totally assets. That is like you borrowed $500K from bank to buy a $400K house and you don't have a stable job. The only way that AMZN will bring its equity to positive and to reduce its debt is by offering new shares which will never be 80% of the most recent 30 day trading average which is $52*80%=$41.6. If any terrorist attack happens in this holidays, AMZN will be first in line to fall. We believe all good news already factored into AMZN's high price, there are many hidden bad news. We also keep track AMZN's orders and here are the latest reviews by online shoppers and you can see AMZN missed the holiday sales by not providing a timely delivery. review 1 review 2 review 3. We rarely give SHORT rec, but we strongly recommend a SHORT on AMZN. update 12/08: News from CNBC, Analyst Kim Goodwin from State Street Research stated that AMZN is a stock she would not want to hold and has placed a sell rating on it. There are also reports that AMZN will miss its numbers. Here is a link reporting profit margin for AMZN is down sharply http://biz.yahoo.com/rb/031208/bizonline_retail_1.html

Our picks in the past 3 months have the lowest gain, 10%, and highest gain, 75%, calculated by real trades, not by (high-low)/low. Don't be fooled by other stock picking services. They use (high-low)/low as their gains. In real world, you will never be able to trade at those level. Our performance is 100% based on real trades.
