What are some of your Hot Stock Picks?

[sterling]

I thought it would be interesting to start a thread where everyone can list some of their personal HOT STOCKS at the moment and quick summation as to why. Include your time frame, current price per share and your expected pps - pure speculation, of course . This is a list only - everybody do your own due diligence (DD). Lets keep it sensible and informative and easy to read through. Each individual's post/list is purely THEIR OPINION!! - lets leave it at that. Thanks!

Some of mine:

IDTA - Identa:
Current pps is .0026; News should be coming out soon about getting into stores (Walmart, Target, Walgreens, etc) for the drug detection kits. Working with US DOD on explosive detection kits. I expect .005 to .01 in coming weeks. Much higher on DOD contract in 5 months.
PARD - Poniard Pharmaceuticals
Current pps around $7. They have Phase 3 coming out this quarter. If good, this could double to around maybe $15. Oncology treatment - potential "game changer". Have conference calls next week and after, should keep it moving up, even in very short term.
VRAL - Viral Genetics
PPS around .07. Have drug for treating HIV and amazing board. Although their infomercial had a real cheese factor that made it seem suspect, this one has a rally in it in the coming weeks, perhaps to over 15c. Longer term, I expect more.
BDSI - Biodelivery Sciences:
Mid-term to long-term play. Should see at least $9 by end of year. Drug delivery system Onsolis just approved. Undervalued IMO at current price around $5.60
NRI / NRIFF - Nuvo
Up for approval next Wednesday, August 5. Can play the runup or hold through as it has good chance of approval. Currently around .36.
Others: HTDS (for flu season), SKVI (flu), AMAR (flu), NEPH (2 more approvals)

I bought INO this morning: 2300 shares @1.68. It kept going up from there but there seem to be strong resistance to break through 1.9, hope it's going up above 2 today, target is 2.1.

I'm new in this business (only a month), but I made some profit. 50% of it came from CGCA.

Thanks Sterling, I'm actually very bullish about BDSI, NEPH and VRAL. I've been researching IDTA for a couple weeks and I like what I see.

Other positions I hold:
HEB: Yes, I know very speculative but risk/reward too high to walk away from.
SPNG: 150% increase in Net Income "quarter over quarter" and gearing for more growth and exposure. Posting results in late August and should continue rallying until then.
MRNA: FDA approved and upgraded with a target of $4
ISTA: FDA approval definite in September
ANPI: Numerous FDA approved devices and many more in the pipeline

More speculative Pinksheets & OTC's:
MSTF: Long-term play but closing Govt contracts regularly
ECCI: Very L/T but incredible potential
LDSR: Extremely undervalued and close to signing larger deals with the Chinese Govt
CCTR: By my calculations, at least 150% undervalued given contracts won and future revenues

Looks like a great "forum" - I'm so tired of the "pumpers", "bashers" and ignorance shown at others. Obviously it goes without saying, but do your own DD on these.

Best,
Archi

GETA just did a 1 for 50 reverse split and stilling 1.5 to 2 illion shares daily. I think if they can keep thier heads above water a FDA approval is coming by the end of the year. Big IF though.

YHOO is my pick. Now is the perfect time to buy. The stock is bound to go up in the near future. I believe the merger with Microsoft will benefit both in the long run.

AOB has been up this week ahead of next week's earnings release. I got in at $5 some time ago and it is now a bit over 6$. Hopefully it will run up into next Friday's earnings release.

I was in AOB last year. Hasn't been on my radar lately. Great long term play! Thanks for the reminder.

GTCB is my favorite, with great patent & great potential pipeline. I'm currently way down, but holding long. Plan to average down if I ever see some + action.
