1. Wide World of Stocks Airing Tomorrow in NYC.
We hit the airwaves again, as co-host of the Wide World of Stocks. We'll be on Fox TV tomorrow at 2:30 in New York and on CBS tomorrow at 11:00 and 2:30. In the coming month, it will air in Chicago, Miami and Los Angeles.
On this episode, host Damon Roberts and yours truly Roland Rick Perry deliver an in-depth review of the Internet Security sector and the multi-billion dollar acquisitions in the industry. It features interviews with StrikeForce Technologies' CEO, Mark Kay, Executive Vice President & Co-Founder, George Waller, and the Chairman of StrikeForce's Advisory Board, Steve Cooper (who was appointed CIO of Homeland Defense by George Bush), as they discuss the market acceptance of the company's unique Out-of-Band authentication and transaction verification technology, as well as its anti-keylogging, keystroke encryption software and revenue growth opportunities.
The goal of the show, is to let as many people as possible -- know the existence of StrikeForce (SFOR) and its software -- and of course to let them know it's publicly traded.
How many people you ask ? Upwards of 92 million !

2. Massive Rise in Malicious Spam.
Understand this. Cyber-crime is a business. And the cyber-criminals are increasingly using email (see chart below), to deliver the malware needed to let them frolic freely through your computer, without a care in the world. And without your knowledge.
In a recent interview, M86 Security CEO John Vigouroux stated "..malware initiated cyber-crime, created losses approaching $100 billion last year for businesses and consumers, which is up from a reported $21 billion three years ago." He quite accurately described the current surfing environment, as a "Global Calamity."
Adding "Cyber-crime as a business, has exploded, up 400% since 2007."

If the big players were publicly traded, they'd be trading at Facebook levels of valuation, maybe even higher and they'd be using the same metrics, like number of new Internet users, popularity of social networking, etc., etc.
And while it may be an illegal business -- understand that it is a business and like many other businesses -- much of the revenues generated, are re-invested.
The average Internet user who surfs around today, does so pretty much care free, not quite understanding what he or she is truly up against. When the average Internet user thinks of cyber-criminal, they typically think someone hiding in the Ukraine, in his grand-mothers basement. And when he makes a "few" bucks, he spends it the finest Romanian women and Russian Vodka he can find, partying like it 1999.
But in reality, they're not partying like it's 1999, they're partying like its 2011 -- if they're partying at all. Their companies don't pay dividends, don't pay taxes and don't have to report to shareholders on a quarterly basis. What they're doing with this money (now that they've made "bank" 10,000 times over), is re-investing it. They're hiring the best and brightest minds and coming up with the best malware that can be made and then re-creating weekly, if not daily.
The goal: to stay a step ahead of Norton and its team of best and the brightest. Of course they have the advantage, because they're "acting" whereas the anti-virus people are "re-acting." Sad but true. It's an age old criminal advantage.
This in our opinion, is why malware has become so sophisticated now, that it easily gets by traditional security systems. It's constantly changing, so the ant-virus people are in a never ending game of catch up.
Today we received three suspicious e-mails from the same individual, who runs a very sophisticated hedge fund in New York. Simply by looking at the links embedded in his e-mail he sent to us, we could tell his email had been hacked. And this was his corporate email address.
So we are going to say this until we are blue in the face...we have found the best solution to protect you from key-loggers, and there is simply NO REASON for you not to buy and download the protection today, right now.
StrikeForce's products end goal is not to find, catch and then kill the virus. It's goal is to prevent the virus you've already downloaded, from working.

2. Raymond James 2011, Watch List Charts.
Still at the top of the charts, the list, now in its 16th year -- has outperformed the S&P 500 index by an average of 14.5% annually over the past decade. A good marketing guy could probably start his own investment fund, just using ideas from RJ. Who needs a research staff ? How easy would that be ?
Or supercharge it as a hedge fund and do it on margin ! Genius.
Now you're talking house in the Hamptons. Outperformed by 14.5% !

3. "Diversification is for Idiots" Mark Cuban.
We totally disagree with this quote (for most people): He says portfolio diversification "is for idiots." You can't diversify enough "to know what you're doing," he adds. You've got to do your homework and play your best bets," according to Cuban.
Our feelings if you diversify enough, let your winners run and cut your losses short -- you don't "have" to know what you're doing, to get along just fine and dandy.
But we do like this quote: "When everything starts getting crazy, "that's when you really get busy..."

Going Concern Statements.
We would like to point out that the majority of companies listed on the
OTC Bulletin Board have factors which create an
uncertainty about the their ability to continue as a going concern. These
concerns are typically related to financing (or lack of), competitive
environments, lack of operating history and operating at loss levels which
is typical of most start-ups.
These statement can usually be found in their most recent 10Q filings and
typically you don't have to dig to far down past the financial tables. We
like to use http://www.pinksheets.com for quick and easy access to SEC
filings. We think it would be wise for most investors to assume that all
companies listed on the OTC Bulletin Board (and many on NASDAQ) have going
concern issues.
================================================
Disclaimer: Important Distinction #1. First and foremost the Watch List is
just that. A watch list. It is not a buy list. Meaning that there will be
no buys or sales issued by the Internet Stock Review. If this was a buy
list, you can rest assured that we would crank up our Public Relations arm
into high gear, full speed ahead and damn the torpedoes to make everyone
know just how brilliant we were when we issued the list. Interviews on
CNBC, articles in Barron's and accolades in the Wall Street Journal--the
only thing we love more than money is praise and fame--but it just isn't
going to happen. What the Internet Stock Review is...is a "news
aggregation service". With the advent of the Internet, everyone knows what
that term means. What it means to us is the following: We will follow the
progress of as many Internet related publicly traded stocks as humanly
possible (The large, the small and the minuscule) and advise you of when
they have reported news. As a subscriber to the Internet Stock Review,
this means you will be able to broadly follow the entire industry right
from a single e-mail. We will report who released news and point (with
hyper links) to where the news can be found. We try to use Yahoo! Finance
as extensively as possible so we don't send you all over cyberspace. We
love Yahoo, you will too. Any decisions as to buy or sell however, are
strictly up to you. Which leads to important distinction #2. How do we get
paid? The Internet Stock Review is owned by a Public Relations firm
(Institutional Analyst Inc.) that specializes in getting (or creating)
coverage for publicly traded companies. As such, is important to note that
anytime we say anything about a company, it is because the company is a
client of our parent company, or because we would like them to be a client
of our parent company. In a nutshell, you can throw out any thoughts of us
being even a little bit impartial. It just ain't gonna happen. We love
everyone. Final note is we that have over 20,000 subscribers so please
excuse our dust. Institutional Analyst Inc. is an independent research and
investor-relations consulting firm that publishes investment-research
