HZN/ASE!!!! The major transaction for this Junior Capital Pool (JCP) is just around the corner. There is a thread on Bio-stocks which seems to be following HZN. I have been invested in HZN since the beginning, and plan to hold for a few years...but there is definitely going to be northern movement on HZN shortly. All the best, Sceptre

To be honest, Denise, I thought you might find it difficult to find micros that met your criteria. Most penny stocks are extremely speculative...you have to believe in the potential product or industry or management to buy in... or you are a day-trader...or you buy on a tip from a friend -- which I've done and lost at. Live and Learn! I don't know anything about the steel industry, so I won't comment on your latest pick - Russell Metals. Anyone else out there? Brad

RUS Are you sure it has bottomed yet? The last few weeks trading have been straight downhill. I'm no good at picking bottoms so generally wait for an upturn before looking seriously. I'm not sure this one is all the way down yet. Even though the numbers look OK, the steel sector hasn't found bottom.

Hey Denise, your Russel pick had a solid quarter. Even though they continue to carry heavy debt they seem to be squeezing the operations and generating good net revenue. Pity about the downdraft of the last few days. The steel sector still doesn't look like a bottom. One thing to take comfort from is the fact that the stock didn't run up prior to an earnings surprise on the upside, which means the people who should be keeping their mouths shut are managing to do just that. Good pick.
