*************************************************************** The Stock Investor Newsletter August 20, 1999 4:00 PM EST August Stock Recommendation ***************************************************************
The Stock Investor Newsletter has not brought you a new Buy Recommendation in almost three months. Why? The answer is simple. Over the past three months or so we have seen a significant decline in the price of internet stocks. Over the past year The Stock Investor has been focusing its efforts in this industry due to the fact that internet stocks have provided investors with the largest short term returns. We have been sitting on the sidelines while we watched these stocks decline. After almost three months it appears as though the internet stocks are ready to make a comeback and head higher. Late last week we began to see evidence of this as virtually every major internet stock including Ebay, MP3.com, Amazon and CMGI started to move back up in stock price.
Welcome to The Stock Investor Newsletter. Today The Stock Investor will be bringing our premium subscribers our August Buy Recommendation. As a premium subscriber you will receive The Stock Investor Newsletter 10 business days before the stock is posted on The Stockinvestor.com web site. The Stock Investor seeks out Buy Recommendations and Research Reports that have recently been issued by Wall Street investment analysts. It is our goal to bring you Buy Recommendations before they hit the investing public on Wall Street.
This month's Buy Recommendation comes from The National Investors Council. That name may seem familiar to some of our subscribes as The National Investors Council issued a Buy Recommendation on iSleuth.com Inc. at $6.75 per share. The Stock Investor featured iSleuth.com Inc. as our January Buy Recommendation. Since we featured iSleuth.com Inc., the stock has traded as high as $17.00 for a 151% gain. Congratulations to The National Investors Council. We feel that their latest Buy Recommendation, issued today, could provide investors with similar returns. (iSleuth.com Inc. appreciated over 150% in a little more than 5 months.) Please note that iSleuth.com Inc.’s new ticker symbol is BHUB.
"WARNING" Currently BHUB is trading at $5.125. Most "investors" who bought on that stock recommendation have lost about 50% of what they "invested."
*************************************************************** August Buy Recommendation: Global Networks Inc. (Formerly known as Bargain Brokers) Ticker Symbol: GNNU Current Price: Bid $5.00 Ask: $5.120 Number of days public: 12 days Target Price: $14.00 to $19.00 per share Web Site Address: www.dgonn.com ***************************************************************
Today, The National Investors Council issued a Strong Buy Recommendation on Global Networks Inc. (Ticker: GNNU) with a price target of $14.00 to $19.00 per share. Currently the stock is trading in the $5.00 range. As mentioned above we had featured a Buy Recommendation issued by The National Investors Council in January of this year. That company was iSleuth.com(BHUB) Inc. and was featured at $6.75 per share. Within one week of that release iSleuth.com Inc (BHUB) had risen from $6.75 per share to over $13.00 per share for a 92% gain. Over the next 5 months iSleuth.com Inc.(BHUB) slowly rose to $17.00 per share for a 15 1% gain. We feel that investors should take a serious look at Global Networks Inc. (Ticker: GNNU).
"WARNING" Currently BHUB is trading at $5.125. At big loss for those who invested.
Global Networks Inc. is the fastest growing Internet marketing company serving the newspaper industry exclusively. What exactly does that mean? Simple. Estimates calculate that major newspapers throughout the United States currently average over 1.0 billion hits per month. Over 50% of these hits or page views go by the wayside and are not sold to advertisers. Why? Most newspapers are not in the business of selling page views on the internet. They are in the business of selling hard copies or the printed version of their newspaper. The massive inventory of unsold page views represents an enormous opportunity on the internet. This is where Global Networks Inc. comes in. Global Networks Inc. will buy all the unsold inventory of page views of various newspapers at an extremely cheap price and simply resell them to national advertisers. This is similar to Double Click (DCLK: $90.938), Razorfish (RAZF: $28.813), 24/7 Inc. (TFSM: $30.438) and Real Media.
What does Global Network Inc. have to offer over these well established companies? First, Global Networks Inc. business is exclusive to the publishing industry. They know the industry inside and out and will be able to place and sell the advertising. Second, Global Networks Inc. management team has over 100 years of experience in the publishing industry. Key management has held high positions in the following companies: The Tribune Company, Newspaper Association of America, Internet Tradeline Inc., U.S. World News and Report, Business Week and National Geographic. But the one KEY FACTOR that Global Networks Inc. has over the world is the following: Global Networks Inc. already has agreements with the following major newspapers nationwide:
The New York Times The New York Post Tribco Inc. (owners of The Chicago Tribune, WGN and the Chicago Cubs Baseball Team) Dow Jones Knight Ridder The Boston Herald Media General Media News Group
In fact Global Networks Inc. already has agreements with over 200 newspapers nationwide.
Over the next three years Global Networks Inc. has set its pro-forma revenue and earnings as follows: (This of course assumes proper financing and/or equity investment)
Year 2000 $23.9 Million in Revenue/$11.8 Million Net Profit (EBIT)
Year 2001 $51.00 Million in Revenue/$27.0 Million Net Profit (EBIT)
Year 2002 $105.0 Million in Revenuc/$58.0 Million Net Profit (EBIT)
If the company were to achieve these numbers and we assumed a EBIT P/E of 25, we would expect to see the stock trading in the $29.00 range after year one, $67.00 after year two and $145.00 after year three. (Please note that dilution of outstanding shares would alter these price targets.)
A Strong Buy Recommendation was issued today on Global Networks Inc. (GNNU) by The National Investors Council with a price target of $14.00 to $19.00 per share. As noted above GNNU is currently trading in the $5.00 range and has only been public for 11 days. We plan to bring you additional news on GNNU in the near future. Remember: The Stock Investor strives to bring you Buy Recommendations and Research Reports before they hit investors on Wall Street.
We have provided Today’s Strong Buy Recommendation Below:

Question: When is the best possible time to look at making an investment in a public company's stock that is in one of, if not the fastest growing industries (the Internet, and E-Commerce) in the world?
Answer: When it is in its infancy stage of growth potential.
But, how do you, as a potential investor, analyze the criteria of what now seems to be a plethora of Internet related companies that are public and make an intelligent decision as to which one would be the best addition to your already well-balanced portfolio?
Well, Global Networks Incorporated (www.dgonn.com), (OTC:GNNU) (GNI, or 'the Company') the demographic geographic online newspaper network has an answer for you.
GNI is an Internet marketing company with the potential to offer national marketers access to local market newspaper readers who are upscale, well educated, and the right age on the radar screen of most national marketers, a.k.a. great demographics.
Consider the on going, almost instant acceptance by the investment community worldwide of Internet related companies who have come out with new, state-of-the-art technology. Whereas the Internet was previously described as 'poised to become a fixture in all consumers lives', I think that it would be safe to say that it's made it, with "all consumers" obviously referring to an incredibly large number of people. The growth of advertising on the Internet is precisely the ingredient that will help GNI achieve significant growth. While Internet advertising is only five years young, in terms of revenue, according to an article in The Wall Street Journal, dated August 12, 1999, it states,
"Spending for online will more than triple over the next four years and will rival radio as the fourth largest advertising medium in the country. Currently, online advertising accounts for $2.8 billion, or 1.3% of the total advertising expenditure. It's estimated to grow to $22 billion, or 8% share of revenues by 2004."
As an aggregate, offered to national advertisers, the online network represents an opportunity to Internet marketers wishing to market nationally, but sell locally. Think of that for a second... Heretofore, national advertising as a category has lagged behind the other newspaper categories retail and classified. National advertisers and their advertising agencies could not utilize newspapers as much as would have been preferred because they couldn't buy local markets. GNI, by linking multiple online newspaper websites can offer national advertisers the ability to market nationally, but sell locally.
The benefit to the newspapers is the ability to attract advertising on their content sites. This advertising would be sold to national advertisers wishing an online presence with local reach. Yes, there are online newspapers in existence now that are currently represented by national marketing companies, but these marketing companies do not specialize in newspapers - nor do they wish to sell content-based sites. They sell banner advertising to marketers, which buy eyeballs. The opportunity here is to be able to offer a guaranteed revenue stream of highly priced cpms bought by national advertisers in a network format.
GNI's goal is to attract national advertisers who have a strategic interactive goal, but seek a strategic Internet solution which employs the usage of targeted, measured, creative electronic advertising messages delivered via the Internet. The national advertiser would now have the ability to utilize all the characteristics which GNI possesses and target demographically, geographically, and by date, day, and time slot. GNI, the only demographic, geographic, online newspaper network offers national advertisers the combined advantages of:
newspapers - with content sites and local reach radio - in that you can buy "day parts" almost like drive time television - it's on a screen direct mail - it can be interactive magazines - in that the adds can be subtly placed within a particular section of the paper.
For advertising agencies, this system will provide the ability to further utilize newspapers as a national medium.
In addition, the advertising agencies and their clients can reach specific targets who use both print and online versions of newspapers at various times of the day, week, or month, as well as reaching targets through a series of linked banner and interstitial ads appearing throughout the newspaper on specific content pages.
While the vast potential of the Internet is realized and highly valued by many people worldwide, it certainly makes sense to revisit some of the vital statistics.
It has been estimated that there are 79 million Americans on the Internet as of March 1999, and that number is expected to grow to 136 million by the year 2002; online purchasers will grow from 18.6 million in 1998 to 64 million by 2002; while the average age of the Internet user is 37, 70% of the total number are said to be age 40 or greater; 47% of all users have a college degree, and 68% have household incomes in excess of $50,000.
Newspaper websites have been said to be the most popular type of web publication, and the figures to substantiate that claim include the fact that 67% of online users frequently read newspapers on the Internet, 38% of online newspaper readers spend more than five hours on the web each week, and local users are twice as likely to buy.
The list of potential adverting categories that could benefit from GNI is virtually limitless, and the preliminary commitments that have already been received by GNI include:
Financial Services Political Package Goods Health Care Entertainment Automotive Pharmaceuticals
GNI is committed to accepting the latest advertising technology, and they have run banners such as static gif, animated gif, jpg, interactive Java banners, Javascript banners, Shockwave banners, and more. They are able to serve any HTML fragment the client can provide, subject to pixel space and file size limitations, and only ask for three days of extra lead time to run non-standard advertising technology.
GNI is currently negotiating with a major interactive advertising agency to receive an equity participation in return for all the back office requirements necessary to establish the system, including:
Setup and planning of the database Assigning user names and passwords. Targeting Ad information and placement instruction Delivery Analysis and reporting Inventory (impressions) management Billing Customer service
With the fast revenue growth anticipated, a solid business plan, matched with talented, experienced management who have a combined 100 years of marketing and sales relationships, management at GNI plan to grow the company through aggressive sales and marketing, strategic alliances, acquisitions, and the further development of proprietary software.
