News regarding CYBLD


Also this morning, you might want to add CYBLD - Cyberlux Corp. to your watch list. 

The stock jumped to $0.02 this morning and still on the rise!

An email that I received this morning

Goldcorp, the World’s 3rd Largest Gold Producer,
May Soon Pay $104 a Share for Gold American Mining Corp. (OTCBB: SILA) a Little-Known, Exploration-Stage Company Whose Stock is Currently Under $1
(Buy Shares in Gold American Mining Corp.
(OTCBB: SILA) Now Below $1, Before Its Needy
Neighbor Offers $104 Or More a Share! 
Dear ADVFN User:
There's a party, a really big party getting started. . .your contribution is a cake. . .but you suddenly discover you're out of flour. What do you do?
You run next door, because you know your neighbor is home, likes to bake, and just made a trip to the supermarket. Problem solved.
Now, what if you're the world's 3rd biggest producer of gold... the gold-price party is heating up fast... and just as $2,000-an-ounce gold is about to knock at the door... you discover your most productive Mexico gold mine is flat out of gold? What do you do?
You go next door. Because you know your neighbor has a huge, un-tapped gold reserve.
Only, unlike the friendly next-door neighbor who happily offers a cup of flour, the neighbor with the gold says he wants the same deal you made recently with someone else. He wants $104 for each share of his stock!

NEW BUYRecommendation:

Gold American Mining (OTCBB:SILA)

Buy at up to $1.50

6-Month Price Target: $5
That's what I think could happen between Goldcorp (NYSE:GG), the world's 3rd largest gold producer and Gold American Mining Corp. (OTCBB:SILA)
The party that's just getting started is the gold market. Goldcorp's founder, Rob McEwen recently said on national TV that he believes gold is ultimately headed for $5,000 an ounce, and that it will hit $2,000 an ounce by the end of 2010!
That should make Goldcorp very happy, right?
Well, it would except for one thing. Its El Sauzal gold mine, the largest producer in Mexico with a recent peak production of over 300,000 ounces a year is running out of gold. Gold production for the second quarter of 2009 is down 22%, or 14,600 ounces, from the second quarter of 2008. Goldcorp's El Sauzal gold mine is nearing the end of its very profitable run.
Meanwhile, its near by neighbor, a tough little company by the name of Gold American Mining Corp (OTCBB:SILA) is estimated to be sitting on as much as $5.8 billion worth of gold and silver on its undeveloped properties.
To me, it's obvious that Goldcorp (NYSE:GG)should make a move for Gold American. The folks at Gold American Mining know this too, and you better believe they're going to play hardball on a takeover price!
Tick... Tick... Tick... Here Are 5 Reasons
Why Goldcorp May Be Forced SOON to
Offer $104 For Each Under-$1 Share of
Gold American Mining Corp. (OTCBB: SILA)

For starters, with a market cap of some $28.6 billion and a share price of over $40, Goldcorp must maintain production. Any reduction in the amount of gold it brings to market could send its stock plunging. And the pressure to deliver will be increased as gold climbs steadily toward $2,000 an ounce!
Gold American knows that back when gold was trading at $550 an ounce, Goldcorp bought the adjacent El Sauzal mine from its previous owner, Glamis, for $9.5 billion, or $54 per share of Glamis stock. At the current, higher price of gold, the equivalent price tag for Gold American leases could work out to $104 a share. And Gold American holds all the cards.
Gold American may soon announce new assay results that could double the estimated amount of recoverable gold in its reserves. I think Goldcorp should pull the trigger now, before the new numbers are officially released.
Gold American just announced they will develop a project in the historic gold-rich district of Nevada reported to contain a total inferred resource of 2,399,000 ounces of gold. Goldcorp will want to do the deal before SILA is able to confirm how much of that gold is actually in the proven and probable category.
The price of gold is headed much higher. Experts predict $2,000 an ounce by the end of 2010. The longer Goldcorp waits to make Gold American an offer on its properties, the more they're likely to have to pay. More on that in a moment.
If my instincts are right, $10,000 invested
in SILA now could explode to $1,040,000!
Gold American Mining Corp is trading now at under $1. Let's say that before Goldcorp makes a move, you are able to buy 10,000 shares at, call it an even dollar. If Goldcorp ends up paying Gold American what it paid per ounce of gold for the El Sauzal mine, your $10,000 investment could suddenly be worth $1,040,000!
Am I being overly optimistic?
I don't think so. But whether or not Goldcorp steps to the plate soon, Gold American Mining (OTCBB:SILA) has everything going for it. Even without an imminent takeover maneuver, I expect to see this under-$1 stock-trading at $5 in the next 6-12 months. And if Goldcorp makes a move, all bets are off!
That's why I'm recommending shares of Gold American Mining Corp. (OTCBB:SILA) now while they're still trading below $1!
I smell a takeover! And if Goldcorp matches what it paid for American Sierra's Mexican neighbor, SILA stock could leap to $104 a share!
My name is John Myers and I grew up in the world of mining and energy investing — it's in my blood. My father was the famous C.V. Myers, one of the original "gold bugs" and an expert in natural resources. I was buying gold stocks at an age when most kids are still collecting baseball cards.
Over the years, I've helped subscribers to my newsletter services, John Myers' Resource Trader Alert, Outstanding Investments, Myers' Finance & Energy and Myers' Secret Stocks, stash away profits like these:
DRDGOLD +937% in 25mos
Metallica Resources +668% in 11mos
Coeur d' Alene Mines +344% in 26 mos
Glamis/Franciso Gold +332% in 18 mos
Wheaton River Minerals +162% in 17mos
Intrepid Minerals +162% in 17mos
PetroChina +142% in 22mos
Southern Copper Corp +90% in 7mos
I'm always digging deep to uncover some new mining stock that's about to make a similar big gain, and needless to say, with the price of gold headed toward $2,000 an ounce, I've been following the new crop of gold mining stocks very closely.
In fact, one of the other mining stocks I recommended was up 260% between 09/03/09 and 10/22/09, But, I'm telling you now that, of all the mining stocks I've investigated, I believe that Gold American Mining Corp has the strongest strategic position, the best management team, strongest finances and the development program that will make it the biggest winner in this super-hot gold market!
Buy Gold American Mining Corp. (SILA) now while it's still below $1.00 and look for $5.00 in less than 6 mos...$10 in a year!
Don't wait too long to buy shares of Gold American Mining Corp. It's a SCREAMING bargain at these current levels. When I explain the fundamentals, I know you will agree with me this new gold mining company CANNOT stay anywhere near its current price.

How To Make Money On Takeovers



Short of consulting a crystal ball, the best way to tell if a company’s a possible takeover target is by watching the buying patterns of investors with top track records. We track SEC 13D filings.

They’re required within ten days of a purchase that brings an investor’s holdings to 5% or more of a company’s outstanding stock.*

That’s not to say you should blindly follow. You must also analyze the company’s balance sheet and market position.

When calculating a company’s book value to compare it with its market value, research its adjusted book value – Including  assets that don’t show up on the balance sheet (find them in annual report footnotes) … most commonly, an overfunded pension plan or last in-first out (LIFO) inventory reserves. Reasons: Spectacular rises in the stock and bond markets have boosted dramatically the funds held in pension plan … and if a company uses LIFO accounting procedures, its inventory is usually worth more than stated on the books.

Valuable insight can also be gleaned from an examination of the company’s securities portfolio, also listed in annual report footnotes. Question: Is the portfolio’s market value higher than its stated book value?

It’s also important to take a look at the market value of a company’s real estate holdings. Where to find them: The Company’s Form 10K, filed annually with the SEC and available from the company’s investor relations department.

You’ll have to research land values in the area…and will usually discover that the value of the property is higher than stated on the company’s books. Finally, find out from its annual report whether the company has a tax-loss carry forward that might benefit another party.

In addition to hidden balance-sheet asset, you need to know how the company is faring within its own industry. How: By comparing its price/earnings ratio with P/E’s in the rest of the industry and with the general market. That gives an idea of whether it’s fairly, over- or undervalued. Best: Undervalued.

Next area to investigate: The Company’s market share or penetration in its industry. Is it a major player or an also-ran? Always go for the major players.

*How to get 13D’s: They’re available from the SEC in Washington on the day they’re filed and in Chicago, Los Angeles and New York one or two days later. Other sources: (1) SEC Today, Washington, DC 20005. (2) Street Smart Investing. In addition, Bechtel Information Services (800-231-3282, 212-425-5210) and Disclosure, Inc. (800-638-8241) will put a “watch” on a company and send filings upon release.

Do-It-Yourselfers Save Money



Reduce the cost of investing in government securities by cutting out the broker. How it’s done: For Treasury bills, notes or bonds, send a letter to the Federal Reserve Bank or one of its branches. Specify the securities to be bought and, for notes and bonds, the name they’ll be registered in. Enclose a check for the face amount of the securities ($10,000 minimum for bills, $5,000 for short-term notes and $1,000 for bonds). Postmark your letter by midnight the day before the next security auction. The Fed will send you a receipt, and a refund of the discount determined at the auction.

Recovering Damages


Collecting damages from brokers for investment losses will be more difficult, even in cases of excessive trading (or "churning"). A May, 1985 ruling, Dean Witter Reynolds v. Byrd, allows such claims to be arbitrated by the stock exchanges and the National Association of Securities Dealers, with compensation allowed for actual losses only. Churning has always been hard to prove anyway, since excessive trading for one investor is ofter acceptable for another.

Rules for Picking Common Stocks


Try to buy the industry leader or, at the very least, a company that has an important position in its industry. 

Look for an industry with a limited amount of competition. 

Avoid an industry that is an essential part of the Gross National Product or the Consumer Price Index, such as autos or steel. Reason: Highly visible companies are east targets for government pressure. 

Stick to stocks that have price/earnings ratios lower than that of the Standard & Poor's 500 index.

The stock should yield at least 4.5 % to 5%.

The company should have a record of significant dividend increases.

The market price of the stock should be close to book value per share.

Both the industry and the company should have growth rates higher than the median of American business. One rule of thumb: Sales and earnings ought to have doubled over the past decade. If they haven't, you probably won't be able to keep ahead of inflation in the years ahead. 

Stay away from companies that are too heavily in debt, especially in relation to industry-wide standards.

Look for companies where managers are owners, too. Nepotism can be a danfer in suc situations. More often, though, owner-management is a big plus. Owner-managers have a real incentive to keep the company growing, as well as to boost the stock's value. 

While you may not find a stock with all these characteristics, insist on at least these two: It should be in a growth industry with owner-management.

Bond-Buying Strategy

The classic bond-buying opportunity when interest rates drop: Investors can lock in high yields and defer interest income, too. One study calculates that 20-year, AAA-rated industrial bonds rose an average of 15.6% during five interest rate seings. These seings, from peak to trough, usually lasted for about one year.

Conservative strategy: AAA-rated coporates or Treasury issues.

Aggressive strategy: Lower-rated issues that swing more in price, providing greater tax deferral (and greater risk). However, even speculators avoid bonds rated lower than A when the depth of recession is not completely clear.

Easy Profit for Small Stockholders


Some companies are willing to pay a premium of 10% to buy back small holdings (under 100 shares). It helps them cut the cost of servicing minor shareholders. There's no broker's fee for selling holdings directly to the company.

Options As Indicators


Often the first sign of a rally in a stock is increased activity in its options.


Recommended: Look for newcomers on the "Most Active Options" list in The Wall Street Journal.

The R&D Indicator


The amount of money a corporation spends on research and development is a good guide to its earnings prospects. Generally, the higher the expenditure in relation to sales, the greater the company's emphasis on new-product development. 

Benchmark: 5% of annual sales spent on research is considered a sizable commitment to research spending.

How Institutional Investors Think


High priorities for institutional investors in selecting stocks for their investment portfolios:

  • Price/earnings ratio, current and projected earnings, and management competence. 
  • Least Important: Product quality, the state of the US economy, and the industry group. 
  • Middle ranking: Balance sheet, price per share, and long-term earnings record.
