Dr. Seuss, VINF Stock Genie is being paid $50K up front and another $100K over two years to promote VINF. The reason companies hire internet promoters is to create a demand for their stock. Internet promotion is to individual investors not institutions, the funds buying move the stocks and they don't need a net promotion to find out about it. Look for selling by insiders or reg-s or a secondary. Average daily vol is 46,000 and at noon the volume is 42,000 with a nice increase in price. I would like to see a bigger increase. It looks like a pretty good short to me. Individual Investor magazine stocks are a great source of shorts also. Many recover but they usually get hammered following the pick. Coz
