TSL,

My pick is Aberdeen International AAB.to, even though it is up over 10% today. Sure wish I could have gone with yesterday's close.

It won't be a 5 or 10 bagger but it should be a solid double, maybe even a triple. I also own some (from lower and current levels). It is trading at less than half of its NAV. One small negative is that $1 warrants expire mid year, so this will dilute the stock somewhat. On the positive side, Aberdeen could use the cash for more deals.

My pick is INX.V (also trades as INXSF in the US). Below is my research summary.

---------------

INXSF / INX.V is a rapidly growing marketing data collection company and is my second largest holding. I think it has excellent odds to be a multi-bagger over the next year and a 10 bagger over the next 2.5 years. It trades in Canada as INX.V and in the US at INXSF. Here are some reasons why I am very bullish:

1. Revenue has been growing rapidly over many years:
2005 $1,684,290
2006 $3,632,304
2007 $5,060,576
2008 $5,914,814
2009 $5,479,081
2010 $5,893,125
2011 $8,840,000 (Estimate based upon co. guidance)

2. I predict that 2012 will be a breakout year. My estimate is for revenue of $12.7M and diluted EPS of $0.14! That gives it a forward PE of only 2 based upon a share price of C$0.28.

3. They are expanding into mobile apps which is a big part of their growth initiative.

4. While my estimate is based purely on organic growth, they have a history of successful acquisitions which provides significant upside potential.

5. Insiders have been buying:
Dec 2/11 Dec 2/11 Pretli, George Direct Ownership Common Shares 10 - Acquisition in the public market 6,000 $0.305
Nov 10/11 Nov 8/11 Watt, Cameron James Direct Ownership Common Shares 10 - Acquisition in the public market 3,000 $0.340
Nov 10/11 Nov 8/11 Watt, Cameron James Direct Ownership Common Shares 10 - Acquisition in the public market 36,000 $0.340
Nov 10/11 Nov 8/11 Watt, Cameron James Direct Ownership Common Shares 10 - Acquisition in the public market 10,000 $0.335
Nov 10/11 Nov 8/11 Watt, Cameron James Direct Ownership Common Shares 10 - Acquisition in the public market 8,000 $0.330

6. Their customers include a large number of blue chip companies some of which include the following:
Sprint, Best Buy, Victoria's Secret, Toyota, GM, Mazda, Ford, Pizza Hut, Staples, and BJ's

Just for something different, I'm going bio-tech.

Put me down for PCYC (Pharmacyclics) NASDAQ

These new contest rules will be interesting. Given present thread psychology, if we get a nice rally into March everyone will exit their picks as soon as they get overbought. 2012 will then turn out to be the anti-2008 and they all become 10-100 baggers by the end of the year while everyone staggers around choking on the dust.

114 entries! When I laid it off on you, I never figured it would be so much work. You want me to help you set the opening prices on these things?

Actually, it's kind of an honor that 113 sets of eyeballs are still reading the thread at least some of the time.
