Thresher Industries Has Everything Going For It

I started watching this stock at .0002. It has gotten up to .0007. It has scaled back, but is poised to make a run towards a much higher level. Take a look at the company, via the website post and press releases and do your due diligence.

Specifically, Thresher Industries is located within a state enterprise zone, a recycling market development zone, a foreign trade zone, and an SBA HUB Zone for contract preferences. They recycle aluminum and create high strength metal composites that are being sold as parts to S&P 500 conglomerates, and automotive manufacturers.

Just yesterday, the volume went crazy at over a 500,000,000 shares trading hands. Today this report came out (posted below). It has been fluctuating between .0001 and .0002 for a month. This volume has taken it to .0003 today and coupled with the press release, I think good things are on the horizon for Thresher. With $250 in an online brokerage account, you could purchase 833,000 shares. If it went to a dime, you would come out with $8300.

Sirius peaked at $1.14 today. I still say it is going farther. Good trading!

Press Release Source: Thresher Industries, Inc. On Wednesday February 24, 2010, 9:21 am EST

HANFORD, Calif., Feb. 24 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Thresher Industries, Inc. (Pink Sheets:THRR.pk - News) announced today that it has received the positive interim material testing analysis from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo Material Sciences Department. The test report concluded the company's own findings on its proprietary material as well as the process used to obtain its superior distribution of particulate in the base aluminum.

According to the company, the success of the new material is due to the high level of distribution of the particulate and this is exactly where many companies have failed before. These results will enable Thresher to obtain a large market penetration in this highly profitable industry. The company, through its partnership with Cal Poly San Luis Obispo anticipates further developing this material as well as other materials for strength, wear resistance and heat dissipation for use in vehicles, reducing emissions and fuel consumption via weight reduction in this multi-billion dollar industry.

"These test results represent a significant milestone for our company in its quest to be a leader in the development of light weight high strength materials," said Tom Flessner, President and CEO of Thresher Industries Inc. "Our now proven ability to manufacture these advanced materials in a cost effective and consistent manner will make our company and product very desirable to the automotive, and aviation industries," further added Mr. Flessner.

Hope Somebody Knew I was SIRI-us.

Hey everyone. Back on February 10th, I highlighted Sirius Radio at .70. Today, it is up over $1.00 to $1.05. I believe it will continue to rise despite some profit taking. Watch it if it dips.....but you might have missed your best shot.

If you have a company you are interesested in, but not quite sure of, send me an email. My main address is stonezbox@gmail.com. I will be happy to do some due diligence with you and see if it makes sense.

Thanks and good luck to all.

Points Of Entry

I just wanted to pop up and let you know that this may be a good time for a point of entry into a few stocks that I have been watching. I will also touch on how my watchlist is doing. I think SiriusXM (SIRI) is enjoying some success as a comeback and there is a movie coming out highlighting the company (press release below). It had been stuck in the .70 range until just recently. It closed at .86 yesterday.
It once enjoyed a $9 a share haitus. You may want to throw a safe amount at this. Oprah to host a live call in show February 11th about child molestation. Oprah is big and this press release came out sixteen hours ago. As Oprah leaves television, expect her radio show to get bigger.

Entertainment: Movie about Sirius XM Radio Gets Worldwide Distribution Deal Previous Release

Movie about Sirius XM Radio Gets Worldwide Distribution Deal

Fans and investors celebrate Sirius XM's rise from the ashes, but will they thank Hollywood?

[ClickPress, Tue Feb 09 2010] Lots of movies get distribution without star names. "Paranormal Activity" was made for a mere 15,000 dollars and boasts an entirely unknown cast. To date, it has generated over 80 million dollars in domestic gross revenue. "It's a new day for independent films," says "Stock Shock" director Sandra Mohr. She should know. Her documentary just landed its own distribution deal and the future is bright.

"Stock Shock," a movie about Sirius XM and the manipulation of the American stock market, was produced in only 3 months. "We wanted to get the story out about corruption on Wall Street as soon as possible," says Mohr. "Investors were losing their shirts and wanted answers. How could banks and good companies be suddenly trading for pennies?" The director admits she had no idea she would be exposed to the corrupt underworld of hedge funds, criminal market managers, and greedy legislators in the process.

She's not the only director attracted by the drama of Wall Street. Michael Moore and Oliver Stone also made films about stock market manipulation and hedge fund schemes. But Sandra Mohr's “Stock Shock” was first out of the gate. The movie exposes a technique known as naked short selling, which has resulted in the collapse of the stock value of some of America’s most promising public companies. Sirius XM, often labeled as one of the most manipulated stocks in the market, is dissected in the movie. "Stock Shock" interviews individual investors who saw their stock price hit a high of $9.00/share and then plummet to a horrifying low of 5 cents in 2009.

Jane Velez-Mitchell, Host of Issues on CNN Headline News calls the movie "Shocking and eye-opening!" and radio host Jim Puplava of the Financial Sense Newshour says the film "deserves an Academy Award."

"Stock Shock" will be featured at the "Los Angeles Women's International Film Festival" on March 28 at the Laemmle Sunset Theaters in Hollywood, California.

Stocks That I Recommended

What is going on with my picks?

ITRO is hanging around .0003. They are starting to get some press on their Silver manufacturing potential.

ZVTK suffered from a massive profit taking and dropped down to a half a cent. This one may be safe to get back into. Yesterday they announced a channel expansion to carry new 60 second infomercial about the Ionic Bulb.

VTSI article was posted on CNN Money yesterday highlighting a seventh straight profitable quarter. http://money.cnn.com/news/newsfeeds/articles/marketwire/0584793.htm (currently at .085)

I believe these are long holds and will result in a nice profit.
