PostHeaderIcon GWSC Expands Markets

Stocks are slightly higher on 1-yr anniversary of market bottom

With little in the way of economic reports or earnings to help drive shares higher, investors are taking a breather after major indexes rose the past few weeks.

Stocks have surged over the last year. The Dow Jones industrial average is up 61.2 percent during that stretch. But traders’ expectations about an economic recovery have also grown. That means it will take more than just an occasional upbeat economic report or earnings release to send stocks up.

Stocks are also seen as more fairly priced now, so it will take exceeding higher expectations for growth and economic recovery to help sustain a rally.

Overseas, Asian stocks were little changed, while European shares fell. A few disappointing earnings reports and renewed concerns about how banks will perform once stimulus measures are removed helped push major indexes in Europe lower.

In late morning trading, the Dow Jones industrial average rose 11.03, or 0.1 percent, to 10,563.55. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index fell 0.22, or less than 0.1 percent, to 1,138.28, while the Nasdaq composite index rose 2.85, or 0.1 percent, to 2,335.06.

PostHeaderIcon CMGO Looks Poised for Growth

Stocks are higher after the jobs report showed fewer jobs were cut in February than expected

The Labor Department’s monthly report is widely seen as the most important economic indicator because employment is considered a key ingredient for a strong, sustained recovery.

Employers cut 36,000 jobs last month, better than the 50,000 cuts forecast by economists polled by Thomson Reuters. The unemployment rate held steady at 9.7 percent. Economists were expecting it to rise to 9.8 percent.

Overseas markets rose after a successful bond sale by debt-burdened Greece and upbeat signs in the U.S. economy. Budget and debt problems in Greece have dogged the markets in recent months.

Friday’s gains on top of a late-day rally in stocks Thursday indicates that investors are optimistic the U.S. economy is improving. Though employers aren’t yet adding full-time staff, jobs growth is fundamental to a recovery because it puts money in more workers pockets, allowing them to increase spending. Consumer spending accounts for about 70 percent of economic activity.

In early trading Friday, the Dow Jones industrial average rose 53.66, or 0.5 percent, to 10,497.80. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index gained 5.91, or 0.5 percent, to 1,128.88, while the Nasdaq composite index added 11.15, or 0.5 percent, to 2,303.46.

PostHeaderIcon DTC Eligible OTCBB Listing: $40,000 USD

OTCBB Listings for under $40,000

Most people ask me how do you make an OTCBB company for under $40,000 when people sell shells for $400,000 in the rising tide of the current market. Only 1 month ago, we completed a transaction for $365,000 and a month before that it was $325,000, so the trend is there for the current price.

At OTCListings.com we have developed a series of questions and forms that we walk clients through to effectively and quickly write an S1. The process is our consulting fee, in addition, we have a second stage process for filing the 15c211 which ensures few comments and covers all aspects of the business in question.

Our legal team is within the top 15 lawyers within the United States for IPOs in 2009, and as far as our PCAOB registered Auditor, we have a great team of companies to work with who charge a flat rate for the S1.

In general, the estimated costs for going public include:

  • $5,000 Legal fees
  • $3,500 PCAOB Registered Auditor
  • $2,000 S1 Consultant and 15c211 consultant
  • $2,000 in filing fees for S1 and related material filings
  • $1,500 incorporation with the guidance of legal specialized in IPOs
  • $2,500 Transfer Agent
  • $10,000 Market Maker due diligence consultant
  • $0 Market Marker, as the due diligence is completed the 15 c211 is filed
  • $2,000 in additional filing fees related to 15c211 and amendments and changes
  • $2,000 second portion of consulting to S1 and 15c211 writer
  • $2,500 additional legal fees upon filing the 15c211

The remainder of the funds are there for a margin of error or in the event that one of the service providers fees increases halfway through the process. The majority of the companies we have taken public has not exceeded $30,000. There are some cases that are more complicated than others, however, we have a strong team and we manage the costs closely.

We work in the most honest fashion possible, everything goes into a lawyers trust account, and the funds are only removed when invoiced for services delivered. Therefore, nothing extra is ever added and there is no huge windfalls for us as consultants accept for a success fee, we are providing a service and hope to gain additional referrals from our good work. We can refer symbols and filings to show the work done and success of our team upon request of serious clients. Our straight forward approach is clearly acceptable and to the standard of the industry, who’s rules we follow with precision.

If you are interested, I can have a consultant who writes the S1s call and begin a qualifying process, also, we highly recommend if you are thinking of going public that we incorporate your company for you with articles and bylaws vetted by our legal team sooner than later. The incorporation is $1,500 including all of the bylaws, articles, resolutions, and related information required from the Securities Lawyer who delivers the company to you. The next stage is preparing the S1 and audit. At this stage the client deposits either $15,000 or $13,500 if we have done the incorporation prior. Once the S1 is filed, the second allotment of $15,000 is deposited, and upon filing the form 211, we generally ask that a $10k success fee be deposited and released upon receiving the trading symbol. Thus the total cost is $30,000 in fees and $10,000 success fees payable to our consultants after you receive the symbol. (You control the funds deposited at all times, as the lawyer will not release funds unless the invoice is approved, including payment to himself and or us.

Stocks are higher after Greece announced a budget plan and as ISM data showed that the service sector improved

The new plan had been expected in recent days, which likely has kept reaction to the report muted. Concerns about Greece’s debt problems have dogged the markets in recent weeks. Investors have been worried that debt problems could spread through Europe and devalue the euro and upend a global economic recovery.

The Institute for Supply Management said its services index rose to 53.0 from 50.5 in January. The reading was the highest since December 2007 and well above the 51.0 median forecast of 71 economists surveyed by Reuters.A reading above 50 indicates expansion in the services sector, which accounts for the majority of U.S. employment.

The index’s employment component jumped to 48.6 from 44.6 the prior month while the prices paid component fell to 60.4 from 61.2.

The report is closely watched because service jobs comprise more than 80 percent of non-farm U.S. employment. The sector is highly reliant on consumer spending, which accounts for more than two-thirds of all economic activity.

Payroll company ADP said employers cut 20,000 jobs last month, matching forecasts from economists polled by Thomson Reuters.

The ADP report is considered a barometer for what the government’s monthly employment report might say. The Labor Department is expected to say the unemployment rate edged up to 9.8 percent last month and that employers cut 50,000 jobs.

Investors will also get better clues about regional economic activity after the Federal Reserve releases its beige book report at 2 p.m. EST.

In morning trading, the Dow Jones industrial average rose 21.92, or 0.2 percent, to 10,427.90. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index rose 3.00, or 0.3 percent, to 1,121.31, while the Nasdaq composite index rose 3.78, or 0.2 percent, to 2,284.57.

PostHeaderIcon TOOT Up Over 70% in 3 Weeks

Stocks are higher following upbeat signs of economic improvement overseas and continued takeover activity

Overseas markets rose following upbeat economic reports in Asia and growing hopes European leaders will complete a bailout for debt-burdened Greece.

U.S. markets are getting a boost from mergers and acquisitions activity for the second straight day. CF Industries made another offer for fertilizer maker Terra Industries, which last month agreed to be sold to Norway’s Yara for $4.1 billion.

Signs of improvement in overseas economies bolstered the market. Japan’s unemployment rate dropped for the second straight month in January and household spending grew — hopeful signs for recovery in the world’s second-largest economy. Australia’s central bank continues to reduce stimulus measures as the nation’s economy rebounds. It increased a key interest rate to 4 percent.

Greece’s debt problems have added volatility to markets around the world for more than a month. Investors are worried that the country’s rising debt problems will spread and upend a global recovery. Traders have welcomed any signs of a resolution by bidding shares higher, though nothing official has been hammered out between Greece’s government and other European leaders.

In the U.S., investors could get details on potential new banking regulations. Senate negotiators are closing in on a deal that would create a new consumer protection agency within the Federal Reserve. The House has passed a bill that would create a separate entity to regulate everything from credit cards to mortgages.

Uncertainty surrounding potential changes to bank regulations have dogged the market in recent months. On Monday, major stock market indexes closed at their highest levels in more than a month and the Standard & Poor’s 500 index and the Nasdaq composite index erased their losses for the year.

In midmorning trading, the Dow Jones industrial average rose 39.45, or 0.4 percent, to 10,443.24. The broader S&P 500 index rose 5.52, or 0.5 percent, to 1,121.23, and the Nasdaq rose 11.17, or 0.5 percent, to 2,284.74.

Stocks are higher after AIG agreed to sell its Asian division and as Manufacturing growth slowed in February

Stocks are higher after AIG announced its biggest asset sale since being rescued by the government. A report of continued growth in manufacturing also lifted the market.

The Institute for Supply Management says Monday that its manufacturing index fell to 56.5 in February from 58.4 in January. The reading is below the 58 economists predicted. But the report finds that employment in manufacturing is improving.

Stocks rose after AIG agreed to sell its Asian life insurance business to Britain’s Prudential PLC for $35.5 billion. The deal is a sign of confidence in the economy.

In early morning trading, the Dow Jones industrial average rose 48.30, or 0.5 percent, to 10,373.56. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index rose 6.00, or 0.5 percent, at 1,110.49, while the Nasdaq composite index is up 14.67, or 0.7 percent, at 2,252.93.

Stocks are trading in a tight range after insurer American International Group Inc. reported a larger than expected fourth-quarter loss

AIG’s news overshadowed a Commerce Department report that the nation’s economy grew at a faster pace than initially estimated for the end of 2009. The government said gross domestic product grew at an annual rate of 5.9 percent, above the 5.7 percent previous estimate.

The stronger growth from the third quarter to the fourth quarter was welcome news but analysts say much of the gain is tied to businesses rebuilding inventories. Growth is expected to slow in the coming quarters.

The report from AIG brought a reminder of the strains that still exist in the financial system. AIG said it lost $8.87 billion in the fourth quarter of 2009. That’s improved from a year earlier but weaker than analysts expected. The stock fell more than 7 percent.

Not all the news was downbeat. Private equity firm Thomas H. Lee Partners said it would acquire the parent of Carl’s Jr. and Hardee’s restaurants. The offer for CKE Restaurants Inc. totals $619 million in cash and $309 million in debt. Analysts like to see takeovers because it is a sign of confidence in the economy. CKE stock jumped 25 percent.

The mixed reports did little to add to investors’ understanding of the direction of the economy. Major stock indexes have logged modest moves since the start of the year because there is disagreement over the pace of recovery. This week stocks have fallen, jumped and slid again as worries about the economy intensified and eased.

In early trading, the Dow Jones industrial average rose 3.63, or less than 0.1 percent, to 10,324.66. The broader Standard & Poor’s 500 index slipped 0.20, or less than 0.1 percent, to 1,102.73, and the Nasdaq composite index fell 2.99, or 0.1 percent, to 2,231.23.
