(NNVC) seems to have a lot of insider selling over the last two years. Some of their pipeline stuff seems to be promising so it's going on my watch list for now. cf.us.biz.yahoo.com/t/...
Want to see an austerity push that would insight the youths of the world in to a riot of seismic amplitudes, spilled blood and parental hatred never before seen?
Oy, Gee: Seasons greetings. It will be interesting to see if the new technology will be incorporated and how we can profit from it if it is. Happy new year Oy, Gee.
look at the INTK activity. From late Sept to now it's gone up from a penny to four pennies. At least once or twice a month, someone is buying over a million shares, but the rest of the month, activity is low ( although it seems to be trending a bit higher). What do you think? finance.yahoo.com/q/hp...
and here is an article on INTK that is very favorable in coatingsworld.com www.coatingsworld.com/...
Oy, Gee: Greetings. Excellent information. Did you notice the intermittent timing pattern of 4-7 days between volume spikes followed by a lull? This item is also an attention getter. I'm starting to accumulate (INTK) as I think it's prospects are good and the stock has positive momentum. Of course as with almost all pennies caution is warranted. www.businesswire.com/n...
I was thinking about buying some of the coating suitable for basements and seeing what I thought. Good products don't mean the stock will go up, but it never hurts to see what it is they're selling. I'm having work done this spring and may try a coat out after the repairs are done. If I do, I'll be sure and post a review.
Synthetic blood is being developed via nano technology. The company that's doing it is still private, a professor at UNC that opened his own company and got some funding. The company also is working on virus cures. Rob, do you want these postings if it isn't actionable by a stock purchase? It's called Liquidia Technologies. www.liquidia.com/Inves...
Oy, Gee: Greetings. My apologies for the delayed response. Your comment was just brought to my attention. In brief I absolutely want your input on these items. What isn't actionable today is what makes multi baggers down the road. I'll be watching this.Tracking what becomes of this new technology as well as other emerging and possibly disruptive technologies. Identifying winners before the herd arrives is what we are all about. Thanks again, it's an excellent lead.
Couldn't find a ticker so my guess is it's not a publicly traded company. It bears watching though. Should it live up to the potential it presents we could make a bundle on it.
Rob, may of the gades who served have already been subjected to needless vaccinations. Remember the gun they marched us past in platoon formations in boot camps. bam, bam, bam, bam just delivering vaccine after vaccine with no needle until they figured out that the body fluids splashing back on the gun got injected into the very next victim.
DG: Greetings. I do indeed remember those storied days of yesteryear. If you twitched you got a nice six inch laceration from those guns. Here is a bit of news from (INTK) which I'm still accumulating. finance.yahoo.com/news...
DG: Greetings. It seems to work just fine for me although it does take a while to become active. Is anyone else having problems with this link? In any event the gist of the news is that they (INTK) have two new contracts.

Some really cool developments regarding LED manufacturing from NCSU (North Carolina State U.). I don't see how its directly actionable, but it could be depending on how it progresses from here...
Headquartered in Durham, a stone's throw from a NCSU campus. (CREE) has pretty close relations with all the local universities as well as the local governments. They tend to rapidly incorporate the latest and greatest into their products.
They also have LED components, LED chips, power, RF and materials products.
All told, may not be as indirect as one would think, if thinking only of light bulbs.
I've been tempted many times to get the stock, but only recently has it begun to move towards a more rational valuation (and still has a ways to go, IMO).

Speaking of which, I've found a message board that might be interesting to you and the folks here.
It's ostensibly an (AXPW) board but there's one or more folks heavily involved in nano-technology for battery applications, apparently.
Some very good links and knowledge right there on the board.
Less than 400 posts, so I suggest you use the got message box and enter the number 1. Then just start scooting through the messages and you'll pick up a lot. I would've posted links, but there are so many.
As you get into the message number 100 range, it gets very frequent.
Take a few days if needed, I think you'll find it worthwhile.
Altair Nanotec (ALTI) is making some progress and has concluded another deal which should make up for some of the lost revenue from the collapse of the south American project. finance.yahoo.com/news... They are scheduled to wrap up the Cannon deal soon and their Chinese counterpart should begin production soon after. I'm keeping an eye on events and may add to this position but I'm still cautious on this one. If the Cannon deal falls through due to U.S. government regulators dragging their feet it may be a total loss.
Altair Nano Tec (ALTI) hit a new 52WK low yesterday before bouncing back to $0.93. Things are not looking good for this struggling company. Nothing new on the Cannon deal which is actually the problem. I'll post up new developments as available.
International Nanotec (INTK) has been struggling of late but new orders are starting to come in which may improve the outlook for this company. finance.yahoo.com/news...
Industrial Nanotec (INTK) has received a repeat order from P.T. Kraft. With new and repeat business picking up I'm wondering why the PPS is flat to negative. au.finance.yahoo.com/n...
Nano Viricide (NNVC) is finally moving in the direction of bringing a IND application to the FDA by contracting with Biologic Consulting Group INC. finance.yahoo.com/news... A descriptive report on their progress is here. finance.yahoo.com/news... I'm not buying in just yet but this does bare observation going forward.
In the last NanoPatch we discussed RNA interferons RNAi under development. At the time we didn't find any publicly traded companies in this space. Now we have one RXII Pharmaceuticals (RXII). I have looked at it and it's very intriguing. It seems to have bottomed and I may open a position after the debt crises management show is over and all the contestants and casualties have been evaluated. I invite all to do their own DD and see if they find this a good play.
I'm not quite sure where to put this so I'll post it here. Solazyme (SZYM) is a relatively new entrant to the alternative fuel space with other interests in food and cosmetics applications. Here is a snap: 2010 REV $38M 09= $9.2M 2010 Net Income = -$16.3M 09= 13.7M EPS -$0.31 09= N/A EBITA -12.2 M 09= -12.7M Debt $179,000.00 Price/cash flow -91.8 Margin -42.9 MKT Cap (M) $ 1,374.19 Outstanding (M) 57.74 Financial Strength 0.61 AVG Volume .649 M 52week high $27.47 52Wk Low $19.6 Recent $23.26. All opinions and research are welcomed as always I'm continuing DD.
On a separate note, IPO Desktop does not have a pick of the week every week, but when he does, they seem to do well... for example, he picked Zillow as pick of the week this week.
Still tracking his record... but looks solid.
As for SZYM... lots of interesting stuff their doing... curious if their scale and margins, as well as the timing of their arrival to market, will work out for them.
Jon, Springer. Greetings. Thanks for your input. I'm actually more impressed with these two companies (RXII) and (SZYM) the deeper I dig into them. I'm thinking both will ultimately prove to be winners long term if one has patience and intestinal fortitude. However neither one is for the faint of heart as both bare significant risk.
Bob: (ALTI) I've been interested in for some time. This penny was a $20.00 stock before the Lehman disaster. Glad you mentioned this stock, because it had floated off my radar. Now, it's back on.
I'm still waiting for Bloom Technology but their stock is much less likely to be $0.01 and more likely to be $200. Their technology is already proven given its being used in Google's buildings already.
RXI Pharmaceuticals (RXII) initiated Phase III trials on Neuvax after the FDA lifted it's hold on the breast cancer vaccine. See the 7:09 Entry. finance.yahoo.com/mark... Stock price is up 13% in early trading.
Robert, are there any particular nano stocks you feel are investible as we drop back into the macro-economic trough? I am nibbling every time the market dips into the 10,000's DOW or near the 10xx S&P, though currently as trades as it cycles back up again.
Still holding my SRSR, and ready to add more around $.04 or less.
TB: Greetings. There really isn't anything on my watch list that is a screaming buy at this juncture. International Nanotech (INTK) is promising long term with a lot of international exposure and a seemingly solid product line. Talon Therapeutics (TLON) seems a bit toppy right now but if the phase III trials get positive results it could take off. RXI Pharmaceuticals (RXII) is also in a wait out mode on phase III trials and just popped by 13% on the FDA lifting it's hold on the trials. Dias Analytic (DLYT) is promising as well but faces head winds in the current environment. I'm going to make an effort to get out to Lea County NM to look at the organic fuel processing plant but that is not yet publicly traded so not investable. I'll post up any new developments. Thanks for your assistance in the Nano Patch.
No sooner did I post that (TLON) looked toppy it pops 15.9% to $1.02. On no discernible news. I've been in and out of this stock at a substantial profit but I'm in hold mode right now as I think something may be in the works.
With the Cannon deal behind it Altair Nanotec (ALTI) is moving forward on strategic projects that had been in limbo. Including the power grid in El Salvador. finance.yahoo.com/news...
RXI Pharmaceuticals (RXII) is splitting into two publicly traded companies. http://bit.ly/q7Jaf8 They have also received IND status on a novel gynecological cancer vaccine with approval for phase I trials to begin by year end. http://yhoo.it/rooBOJ;.v=1
Talon Therapeudics (TLON) has received approval of their NDA for Marquibo (R) which is now eligible for fast track by the FDA under part H. http://yhoo.it/qfKnPr;.v=1
A paper was presented at a paper manufacturing conference in India featuring International Nanotec (INTK). At this point any notice seems like a good thing. http://yhoo.it/qjOxp7
It's one-off early adopters like that who eventually get the word out and the rest of industry to take notice.
The only problem is it's still awfully dog-gone slow to get adoption widespread.
Good article Robert!
Those temp differences were significant, although folks unfamiliar with industrial processes and energy costs might not recognize how substantial those gains are.
H.T.Love: Greetings. Indeed I like the product line and the company seems well run. I'm a little disappointed in the growth at this time. You would think that they would receive more attention now when companies are trying to save money every where.
I bought this stock at .03 a share and it's still there at .03. Long 2000 shares, $60.00... one of the better performers these days. It's impervious to market conditions.
Oy, Gee: Greetings. I'm with you on that score. They just keep on keeping on. I think you and I were buying in at the same time and have the same amount invested. Either great minds are thinking alike or we are befuddled together. LOL.
International Nanotech (INTK) has begun marketing to the nuclear power industry. http://yhoo.it/wp6xg2 If they get a solid foot hold in it they could do well going forward both for new construction and decommissioning. If this starts to move I'll buy more and give a shout out from the NanoPatch. Talon Therapeutics (TLON) has a FDA date of March 12 for it's Marquibo cancer preparation.
H.T.Love brought this to our attention. It's an article about Graphine/ Graphite production, use and a couple of ideas on playing it. Thanks H.T. Love. http://seekingalpha.co...
