On Monday July 6, 2009, 4:16 pm EDT

MILWAUKEE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Please replace the release dated July 1, 2009 with the following corrected version due to multiple revisions.

The corrected release reads:

ZBB ENERGY CORPORATION SHIPS ZESS 500 ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM.

First Wind Energy Storage for Ireland

ZBB Energy Corporation (NYSE AMEX: ZBB) advises today that, as part of its previously announced contract with the Dundalk Institute of Technology (DIT), it has shipped a ZESS 500 system to the Republic of Ireland for inclusion in DIT's Centre for Renewable Energy project.

This ZESS 500 zinc energy storage system has been chosen to provide key energy storage in conjunction with existing wind energy assets. The ZESS 500 will be installed alongside an existing 850kW wind turbine that is already providing half of the DIT's power requirements. The addition of the energy storage system will maximize the viability and value of onsite wind energy.

This will be the first installation of the ZESS 500 in a wind application and will allow the campus to operate completely independently of the electrical grid. The ZESS 500 is a 500kWh 'plug and play' system consisting of ten of the Company's standard 50kWh modules, together with associated power electronics and integrates with the existing power management system operating with the wind turbine.

ZBB's Chief Executive Officer Robert Parry added "I am pleased to advise that this project was entirely on schedule and on budget, marking an important milestone for the company's commercial success."

In addition to this shipment, the Company also advises that it has recently shipped a ZESS 50 system to Likusasa Engineering and Contracting Pty Ltd, for their cell tower project in Zambia with MTN Group, and a ZESS 50 system to Levitate Energy for their mobile emergency power and communications centre project in Moses Lake, Washington.

An Action Packed Week

An Action Packed Week

Stay tuned to the OTC Journal this week- It's going to be action packed. I've heard from a couple of the small stock followings, and it looks like there's going to be a lot of positive news coming this week starting tomorrow and running through at least Thursday.

And, on the issue of the small stocks. Opportunistic is the correct word for making money in these stocks right now. It seems like the market is taking advantage in any surge in liquidity and price to shed shares.

Therefore, if you are going to make money, you need to be a buyer on the low volume pullbacks, and a seller (if you're not a long term investor) on the volume and price surges. UFFC,LEGE, IXEH, OPMG, PKT, and even CGYV has succumbed to selling pressure on the volume and price surges.

If this list of stocks are eventually going to trade favorably, the supply of stock has to dry up, and the breakouts need to hold to set the stocks up for higher levels. We're not there yet, but we're headed there. Despite the charts looking lousy, each of these volume and price breakouts sets these stocks up for better price performance down the road- if and when they deliver the real fundamentals.

Thursday, just prior to the 4th of July holiday, was the first major crack in the market for sometime. As you can see from this chart, the Thursday jobs report, which was abominable, set the market back on some relatively strong volume on what should have been a very quiet day.

But- how much did the market really fall? Here's a chart of the S&P 500 since the market started its rebound phase in March. Note the following- the market surged beautifully in March and April- the S&P 500 made a 38% move from early March to early June- that's a once-in-a-century two month move for the S&P 500.

However, if you look at this chart, you should also note the S&P 500 simply traded sideways for the ensuing 2 months- May and June. In fact, today's S&P is at the same level it was at on May 1st and May 22nd.

After the 38% move, everyone was looking for a correction. Corrections come in many forms- they can be sharp pullbacks, or they can be extended sideways trading.

Now, we've got a little crack in the "Reflation" thesis, and there's a small correction going on. However, the market isn't tanking, and sideline money will start piling in- especially if earnings come in better than analyst expectations. And, speaking of the Reflation thesis........

Reflation- Driving the Market

We've been reflating your portfolio in our large cap ideas, and it's worth taking a look at with the market taking a bit of a breather. Has anyone looked at the Brazil ETF(NYSE: EWZ) of late, which I recommended back on December 13th at $35? It's been as high as $58, and is currently about $50 with the recent sell off in oil. At the high, that's a 66% return in a cash account, 132% in a margin account (less interest).

What's fueling the reflation trade? Fuel is fueling it, or perhaps reflation is the fuel for fuel.

Jed Clampett's black gold- Texas tea- whatever you want to call it. Oil has doubled off the bottom this year. $35 to $70 when all the geniuses getting air time on CNBC were forecasting $20. What's fueling Reflation?

The government's way of stopping the economy from spiraling into the vortex of depression so far has been to pump billions of newly printed dollars into a weak system.

When those banks “too big to fail” and iconic auto companies “too big to fail” began falling, the government printed more money and bailed out many of the companies responsible for getting us in this financial mess in the first place.

Then came the effort to reflate the economy with a $787 billion stimulus package—coupled with a growing deficit—designed to turn America green so we can eventually sever our reliance on oil with the Middle East, rebuild infrastructure and put millions of people back to work.

The Federal Reserve has also lowered interest rates essentially to zero and is on track to pump more than $2 trillion into the credit markets. Around the globe central banks and governments are making similar moves, and investors are beginning to buy into it.

Even though many economies continue to struggle, investors are looking ahead to a time when the massive rescue efforts by central banks and governments gain traction. In fact, the shift from traditional recessionary positions to raw materials and commodity-related stocks has already begun.

Until a few months ago, investors weren't even thinking about preparing for a recovery, hoarding cash and U.S. Treasury bonds and defensive stocks that would perform better than most in a recession. Energy stocks are part of the reflation trade thesis and – down the road -- offer a hedge against inflation. After all, oil is priced in dollars, meaning that as the greenback falls, black gold rises.

Hopes for a second-half recovery have already lifted the price of a barrel of oil to around $69. Just a few months ago it struggled to break past $40. While crude-oil prices are half of what they were last summer after setting an all-time record of $143 a barrel, they are up 100% from their low of $33 hit on Feb 12 and certainly could go much higher. I see oil at around $85 by year's end.

Think about this: If worldwide GDP momentum recovers to its normalized rate of 4.5%, you tap into OPEC's reserve margin of 3 to 4 million barrels a day by at least 1 million barrels a day per annum. China could take up to an additional 500,000 barrels daily. Non-OPEC oil supply has peaked, and right now, exploration budgets stand far below a year ago when oil was pushing $150 a barrel.

As the rally moves forward, that fuels continued optimism in the economy. As we relax through summer and vacation season, energy use grows and that bodes well for the Reflation Thesis, and higher levels in the markets.

ESP Resources Inc. (ESPI.OB)

http://www.socialpicks.com/ideas/show/253034

The Dean's 4th of July gift to all CollegeStock students is ESPI. It's referred to it as a gift because ESPI is at the absolute very beginning of what I believe could be the biggest penny stock marketing campaign of 2009.

I've been working tirelessly over the past few weeks to hand deliver a special situation stock like ESPI to all CollegeStock students on a silver platter ------------->

An Illiquid Stock With A Low Float At The Very Beginning Stages Of A Massive Penny Stock Marketing Campaign!

These are my favorites types of opportunities because historically speaking, whenever The Dean has been the 'first-in-line' to launch a substantial marketing campaign than the savviest students like Rajat, Joe, Brandon and Cliff always seem to book very healthy profits again and again

Expect detailed, continual coverage of ESPI throughout the entire month of July because in my opinion this high risk / high reward stock is all set to take a very wild ride.

ESP Resources Corp. (ESPI) is a technology based custom formulator of specialty chemicals for the agrichemical and energy industries.

ESPI offers production chemicals, drilling chemicals, waste remediation chemicals, cleaners and waste treatment chemicals including:

• Surfactants that are highly effective in treating production and injection problems at the customer well-head.
  
  
• Well completion and work-over chemicals that maximize productivity from new and existing wells. Bactericides that kill water borne bacterial growth, thus preventing corrosion and plugging of the customer well-head and flowline.
  
  
• Scale compounds that prevent or treat scale deposits.
  
  
• Corrosion inhibitors, which are organic compounds that form a protective film on metal surfaces to insulate the metal from its corrosive environment.
  
  
• Antifoams that provide safe economic means of controlling foaming problems.
  
  
• ESPI emulsion breakers, which are chemicals specially formulated for crude oils containing produced waters. Paraffin chemicals that inhibit and/or dissolve paraffin to prevent buildup. Their effectiveness is not diminished when used in conjunction with other chemicals.
  
  
• Water Clarifiers that solve any and all of the problems associated with purifying effluent water, improve appearance, efficiency and productivity.

ESPI supplies specialty chemicals for a variety of oil field applications including separating suspended water and other contaminants from crude oil, pumping enhancement, and cleaning, as well as a variety of fluids and additives used in the drilling and production process.

The company has carved a unique niche into the petrochemicals industry by offering personalized solutions to oil production companies regardless of size, type or pressure rating. They create very specific custom chemical blends tailored to each unique client in order to maximize drilling and production well performance.


ESPI’s more specific mission is to provide applications of surface chemistry to service all facets of the fossil energy business via a high level of innovation. ESPI is focusing its efforts on solving problems in a highly complex integration of processes to achieve the highest level of quality petroleum output for its partners.



Not only does ESPI generate income from the sale of custom chemical blends, but they also have the potential to generate substantial monthly recurring revenues by delivering (and storing) these chemical blends in “day tanks”.


Once ESPI formulates a particular chemical blend, it is delivered and placed in service at the customer’s well-site location in a day tank. The tank is tied to a pressure pump that provides the pumping capacity to deliver the chemical into the wellhead for the customer.

This bait-and-hook business model is one of the most lucurative strategies on Earth- ESPI sells customized chemicals to oil producers for an up-front fee and also provides the necessary chemical storage and ongoing maintenance for day tanks in exchange for monthly recurring fees. An easy way to understand ESPI’s business model is to compare it to selling razor blades: Get A Useful Product Into Customers Hands And Collect Recurring Fees With Very High Profit Margins For Life.

ESPI’s unique process shortens the chemical development time frame from what might have been as long as two months or more to a few days or hours. The exceptional service, response times and chemical products that the ESPI team is able to provide its customers is a differentiating factor within the industry.

Buy Cobra Oil & Gas (CGCA) immediately!

ECONOMIC ADVICE

James Ralpholz - B.A.M.S. Economics

SPECIAL REPORT

July 2, 2009

Cobra Oil & Gas (CGCA) is a junior exploration company you’d never find on your own. But oil giant Exxon found it and fully understands the monster profit potential Cobra represents. Cobra is sitting on the sweet spot of America’s Secret Oil Fields Did you know Canada is now the largest single exporter of oil to the United States? Did you know massive oil sands like Canada’s extend into the United States? These secret American oil fields are found in Texas, California, Alabama, Kentucky and a few other states. But the largest measured US oil sands resource is in Utah. According to Utah Geological Survey, an estimated 14 to 15 billion barrels of oil are sitting in Utah alone, with an additional resource of 23 to 28 billion barrels. And Cobra’s sweet-spot slice of this secret oil is more than America will need for the next 146 years. And it’s all right here, in Utah! Oil giants such as Exxon, Royal Dutch, British Petroleum, Chevron, Conoco, Marathon (to name a few of the world’s massive oil companies) helped developed Canada’s oil sands, making our northern neighbors our number-one source of crude. And now, with Exxon signing on to Cobra’s projects... Not another drop of oil from beyond our borders Every energy expert I know agrees that wind and solar energy are decades away from meaningful mass application (and investor profit). What’s more, major conventional crude discoveries just aren’t happening anymore, and at the same time, oil consumption is rising relentlessly! Yet, not another drop of oil from beyond our borders will be needed, thanks the America’s secret oil fields. Well, the vast amounts of oil on USA turf is not secret to the likes of Exxon, and all the other oil giants... the same powerhouses that made Canada the largest single exporter of oil to the US. 2 trillion barrels of oil Of the more than 2 trillion barrels of oil sands reserves worldwide, the greatest concentration lies in North America, with USA holding the second largest part, next to Canada. Within US borders, Utah has the largest measured oil sands concentration, with anywhere from 100 million to over 22 billion barrels. And here’s Cobra, sitting on the sweet spot! Cobra’s holdings represent about 15% of the entire deposit, a highly lucrative area covering 470 square miles. These 470 square miles, located in the northeast of Utah in the Uinata Basin, are one of the few geologic units that contain nearly all of Utah’s oil sands resources. Exxon knows this, which is why they took a 12.5% interest on the leases held by Cobra in this region. The US Bureau of Mines estimates that Cobra’s P.R. Spring Deposit (one of two Cobra deposits in this 470 square miles of Utah) contains 4.0 to 4.5 billion barrels of oil... about a quarter of a trillion dollars worth of oil at today’s price. But the big news for you is, you could... Make bigger profits than Exxon will with Cobra. CGCA profit potential is estimated to be insane on a long-term basis. Short term, within the next 30 days, we expect a 60% pop in share price. And the steep climb could start within days. That’s why it’s urgent for you to buy CGCA immediately. Safe Solution to a Dangerous Dilemma The world runs on oil and all the big puddles have already been discovered, and they are being depleted as you read this report. Solar, wind and all the other energy alternatives are decades away from having any major impact, let alone profits for investors. Some might ask how can America ever hope to free itself from depending on foreign governments for its needed energy? Energy experts know the answer lies in America’s secret oil fields. A short history lesson brings today’s profit potential into clear focus Bitumen -- the oil component of oil sands -- was found in Canada about 100 years ago. But it wasn’t until the 1920s that the first technology was developed for extracting the valuable hydrocarbon. By the 1940s, the Alberta government used that same technology to process 450 tones of oil sand per day. Fast forward to the 1960s and we find the first oil sands operation, the Suncor Project, up and running. By 1973, a second oil sands project, Syncrude, geared up and in 1978 shipped out its billionth barrel. Meanwhile, here in the USA, oil sands were being discovered in Utah, among other places within our borders, as far back as the 19th Century. But it was still cheaper for America to import oil... until... The price of oil started rising like a rocket. Between late 2001 and 2006, with the price of oil rising from about $18 a barrel, tapping into America’s secret oil became hot news among oil experts. New research, geological mapping and core drilling, and the development of bitumen extraction and upgrading techniques are pumping life (and profits!) into the promise of a successful and sustainable source of domestic oil. Exxon knows this. So do all the other oil giants. But most small investors are not being told of the enormous profit potential sitting in Utah, let alone the small company in control, Cobra Gas & Oil (CGCA).

FAST ACTION SUMMARY If you don't have time to read this whole report, do this right now: BUY COBRA OIL & GAS (CGCA) IMMEDIATELY! This editor’s gift is making individual investors rich. James Rapholz has a gift. Searching for -- and finding -- hidden stocks with great potential is in James’ blood. And when he discovered Cobra Oil & Gas (CGCA), he knew this stock could be his biggest blockbuster yet... perhaps the most profitable stock you’ll ever own. CGCA looks to hold the same -- if not better -- promise as Mr. Rapholz’s previous recommendations, including: 6,100% gain with Crown Resources 237% gain with Megellan Petroleum 349% gain with Kinross Gold 737% gain with Lumina Cooper 502% gain with Great Basin Gold 1,337% gain with Yamana Resources 1,610% gain with Zimbabwe Platium Astute individual investors get his recommendations on a monthly basis by subscribing to his private service, Economic Advice. Each issue opens your eyes to profit opportunities that would otherwise slip pass you. Don’t let Cobra get away. Buy CGCA immediately! America’s Secret Oil Is No Secret To These Giant Oil Sands Players Conventional oil is now too expensive and difficult to find. Yet, worldwide demand for oil never lets up. The follow giants know the enormous value of oil sands. Each listed here helped Canada become the #1 exporter of oil to the USA. Exxon’s recent 12.5% partnership with Cobra Oil & Gas in Utah, is a clear signal to buy Cobra (CGCA) immediately! $333.72 billion Exxon Mobil Corp $162.12 billion Royal Dutch Shell $147.96 billion British Petroleum $129.24 billion Chevron Corp $122.96 billion Total S.A. $66.17 billion ConocoPhillips $63.28 billion StatoilHydo ASA $20.85 billion Marathon Oil Corp Astute individual investors get his recommendations on a monthly basis by subscribing to his private service, Economic Advice. Each issue opens your eyes to profit opportunities that would otherwise slip pass you. Don’t let Cobra get away. Buy CGCA immediately!

Cobra’s projects in Utah could power America for 146 years! According to the Energy Information Administration, which is the official source of energy statistics from the United States government, 20,680 barrels of oil are consumer every day in the USA. It comes to more than 7.5 million barrels a year. But Cobra is sitting on an estimated 1.1 billion barrels (in Utah alone!), more than enough to power the USA for 146 years!

And then there’s all that Cobra oil in Montana... Cobra Oil & Gas also has a fantastic conventional oil play in Montana, on the Lodgepole and Bakken Formations. In April 2008, the USGS (United States Geological Survey) reported there’s an exstimated 4.3 billion barrels of recoverable oil and up to 3.0 trilion cubic feet of natural gas on the US portion of the Bakken formation. This is 25 times bigger than previously reported in 1995. Then in June 2008, the USGS reported that Cobra’s two primary Montana drilling targets represent nearly 4 trillion cubic feet of natural gas.

Cobra’s Batting 1,000

But here’s the really exciting news that illustrates just how savvy a company Cobra is. The company is batting 1.000 in Montana. A perfect 39 for 39. Every drill bit put into the Montana soil hit oil.

Cobra’s Montana projects are almost as exciting as their Utah projects.

The world wants our oil

China and India are investing in oil sands to secure their energy needs, mostly in Canada right now. But Exxon’s 12.5% partnership with Cobra in Utah is helping to shine a bright spotlight on America’s secret oil. And the likes of China and India could soon try to capture USA oil as well. As an investor, you win either way.

You get a fortune by capturing shares of Cobra Oil & Gas (CGCA) immediately. And you can easily amass a substantial number of shares -- if you act now.

Cobra is under $1 as I write. But I see the stock climbing fast in the coming days... a 60% pop is in the works. And beyond the next 30 days, profits could be big enough to set you up for life.

But you must get in now.

Otherwise, you could miss out on the potential sudden profits that has elevated Cobra to our top pick. You don’t want to miss this one.

3 Stocks on Buffett's Wish List?

By Ilan Moscovitz
March 19, 2009 |

"A simple rule dictates my buying: Be fearful when others are greedy, and be greedy when others are fearful. And most certainly, fear is now widespread."
-- Warren Buffett, Oct. 16, २००८

It was a tough year for the world's richest man -- according to data from Forbes, Warren Buffett's net worth declined in value by a staggering $25 billion in 2008.

So let's not be too hard on ourselves if we, too, owned a few stocks that lost substantial portions of their value last year. Instead, let's pay close attention to what masters like Buffett are doing on the heels of such a dismal market year.

Let's cut to the chase
Buffett has been using the $44 billion cash hoard he had at the end of 2007 to buy stocks ... in the midst of an economic crisis.

Sure, Buffett may be insane, but as the world's richest man, his record speaks for itself. So when he wrote in a recent New York Times editorial that he's buying now because it is likely that "the market will move higher, perhaps substantially so, well before either sentiment or the economy turns up," Fools would do well to take heed.

These opportunities
What opportunities might The Oracle see today? According to Berkshire Hathaway's (NYSE: BRK-A) most recent 10-K filing, Buffett is interested in buying companies at a fair price that have:

1. At least $75 million of pre-tax earnings.
2. Consistent earnings power.
3. Good returns on equity with limited or no debt.
4. Management in place.
5. Simple, non-techno-mumbo-jumbo, business.

These criteria are designed to ensure that the stocks on Buffett's watch list are large, well run, understandable, and possessing durable moats -- sustainable competitive advantages that allow a company to maintain high levels of profitability and growth over long periods of time. Those are the rare companies that you want to buy when they're cheap, then hold for a long time as they continue to grow and prosper.

To try to identify the stocks that may be populating Buffett's wish list, I built a screen based on these traits using Capital IQ, an institutional software database. My research turned up 78 stocks. Confirming that we're on the right track, several of the companies that popped up are already owned by Berkshire Hathaway.

Here are three more candidates:

Company	7-Year Annual Earnings Growth	Return on Equity	CEO Tenure	Industry	Analyst Coverage
Best Buy (NYSE: BBY)	16%	28%	7 Years	Electronic Retail	25
McDonald's (NYSE: MCD)	15%	30%	4 Years	Restaurants	18
PotashCorp (NYSE: POT)	62%	66%	10 Years	Fertilizer	13

Data from Capital IQ, a division of Standard & Poor's.

But you can do better
Unfortunately, large companies attract lots of coverage from Wall Street analysts -- those 78 stocks have 21 analysts following them, on average -- which, as I've explained in an earlier column, makes them less likely to be mispriced. Even though Buffett's excited about all the opportunities he sees today, he's well aware that small companies offer greater upside.

So given that $26 billion US Bancorp (NYSE: USB) is on the smaller end of Buffett's major holdings, why does he stick with such large stocks?

Berkshire's overall portfolio was more than $120 billion at last count, which means that any new investments Buffett makes will have to be big -- such as his 2008 multibillion-dollar purchases of General Electric (NYSE: GE) and ConocoPhillips (NYSE: COP) -- in order to have much of an impact on his bottom line. Only huge companies can support the kind of volume he brings to the table. So Buffett has to look for the market's best large caps, rather than the market's best stocks.

He freely acknowledges this fact:

Berkshire's past record can't be duplicated or even approached. Our base of assets and earnings is now far too large for us to make outsized gains in the future [original emphasis].

Cue sympathetic "aww" ...

Why Buffett may wish he had less money
Buffett once famously boasted that he would be able to earn 50% annual returns ... but only if he had a whole lot less money. Why? Because he'd be able to freely buy and sell small stocks that the hot shots on Wall Street don't adequately cover.

So if you're like me and have less than $120 billion to invest, it makes sense for you to look at some of the stocks Buffett wishes he could buy -- small stocks.

If we strip away Buffett's $75 million pre-tax earnings requirement and focus on small caps, our list of candidates grows to 162. Better still, these companies have just eight analysts covering them on average, which increases our chances that Wall Street's missing something.

Here are three small-cap stocks that Buffett may wish he could buy.

Company	7-Year Annual Earnings Growth	Return on Equity	CEO Tenure	Industry	Analyst Coverage
Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory	12%	29%	28 Years	Confectionary	0
Toro	28%	30%	4 Years	Heavy Machinery	6
WD-40	6%	17%	11 Years	Household Products	5

*Data from Capital IQ, a division of Standard & Poor's.

Of course, these aren't my (or Buffett's) official recommendations. But they share the most important qualities he says he screens for, and they are interesting places for further research.

Some more ideas
Yes, it's been a tough year for all of us. But the world's richest man -- who has made bundles of money through wars, oil shocks, recessions, and a number of market panics and sell-offs -- believes that now is the time to invest and make money: "If you wait for the robins, spring will be over."

After a Huge Quarter, What's Next for Stocks?

After suffering through 2008 and the first quarter of this year, stock bulls finally have something to crow about। In the second quarter, the S&P 500 rose 15%, turning in its best performance since the glory days of the second quarter of 1998. Are these gains sustainable?

Gainers and laggers
As the following tables demonstrate, some large-capitalization stocks turned in huge numbers, while others were left behind in the rally.

S&P 500 Gainers (among top 5%)

Company	Q2 2009 % Return	Cyclically Adjusted P/E Ratio*
Ford Motor (NYSE: F)	130.8%	--
Bank of America (NYSE: BAC)	93.5%	4.6
Dow Chemical (NYSE: DOW)	91.5%	6.2
Capital One Financial (NYSE: COF)	78.8%	5.8

Source: Capital IQ, a division of Standard & Poor's; author's calculations.
*Price divided by average earnings-per-share over the prior 10 years. Note that this P/E differs from the one cited for the S&P 500 below; the latter uses inflation-adjusted earnings.

S&P 500 Laggers (among bottom 5%)

Company	Q2 2009 % Return	Cyclically-Adjusted P/E Ratio
Bristol-Myers Squibb (NYSE: BMY)	(7.3%)	14.5
Monsanto (NYSE: MON)	(10.5%)	25.0
Best Buy (NYSE: BBY)	(11.8%)	11.8

Source: Capital IQ, a division of Standard & Poor's; author's calculations.

Interestingly, despite significant stock price advances, the P/E ratios of our gainers remain substantially lower than the ones for our laggers. In the case of Bank of America and Capital One Financial, this reflects uncertainty concerning additional losses and normal profitability in a post-crisis economy.

What's the market worth?
At yesterday’s close of 919.32, the S&P 500 is valued at 15.75 times the average of its prior-10-year earnings, which is fractionally below the long-term average of this P/E ratio (16.3). That suggests that stocks are approximately fairly valued.

Bear in mind, however, that if the "new normal" growth rate in the economy is less than 2%, this will constrain profit growth, which in turn justifies a lower multiple. In that context (and for a couple of other reasons), I tend to believe that stocks are actually slightly overvalued, leaving them susceptible to a correction in the short term. (The average annualized growth rate in real GDP between 1929 and 2008 is 3.3%.)

Outlook: Fair, with pockets of real value
On a longer-term basis, stocks look moderately attractive right now (which may be good enough at a time when the alternatives -- government bonds, for example -- look singularly unattractive). Furthermore, despite the surge in stock prices since the market's March 9 low, pockets of genuine undervaluation persist. I recommend concentrating on 1) high-quality businesses and 2) financials. In the latter case, the uncertainty over appropriate valuations in this environment has created significant opportunity, while financial meltdown is now longer a threat.

Snapshot - "WRGL could become one of our biggest oil plays of all time. The company has signed an acquisition agreement with American Resource Petroleum Corporation to acquire two separate licenses for their oil sand and oil shale extraction process. WRGL also has a contract to recover oil on property controlled by AREC in Utah. With oil prices continuing to move higher, we are excited about oil extraction from oil sands again. WRGL could become the biggest oil sands play out there!"

Industry: Few people know that there is more oil locked up in tar sand and oil shale in the U.S. than the total reserves known in Saudi Arabia as well as five other Middle Eastern nations. The area WRGL is looking to recover oil from in Utah has proven recoverable oil reserves in excess of 60 million barrels. The deposits and the surrounding lands in Utah are the most accessible and highest grade oil sands deposits in the world.

Strategy: WRGL plans to acquire American Resources Energy's extraction technology to recover more than 99% of the available oil present in the tar sands. There is no exploration risk and no decline curve, unlike traditional oil production. The extracted oil will be sold to refineries throughout the Intermountain West of the United States.

The U.S. could be the next Saudi Arabia in terms of oil supply, but in the area of oil sands and shale. WRGL is dedicated to helping achieve this sort of energy independence for the United States.

Recent News: WRGL discussed their technology for separating oil from tar sands in a PR on June 11th. WRGL's technology is capable of separating oil from tar sand with a non-toxic liquid technology requiring no heat and minimal water, superior to any process now in operation and with procedures that are totally bio degradable, non-carcinogenic, and Earth friendly.

Also on June 11th, WRGL announced that the Acquisition Agreement signed with American Resources Energy Company ("AREC") is moving forward according to schedule. Within the PR, the company stated that the transaction between WRGL and AREC should materially increase shareholder value.

Additional Information on WRGL: The company's corporate Website is at www.WRGL.net and the Website for American Resource Petroleum Corporation (the company WRGL plans to acquire assets from) is at www.AMRPCO.com.

We believe WRGL could receive significant attention from the investment community as investors begin paying a lot of attention to oil sand stocks again.

WRGL's Chart - WRGL peaked above $0.65 on June 12th after their June 11th press releases above on significant volume. Investors saw the great potential of WRGL and now the stock has corrected to a great price! WRGL has its 200-day moving average below to act as support and its 50-day moving average above to act as a potential breakout point! WRGL is back in the range where investors were accumulating it in the months before its huge move higher! We believe WRGL is at a price level where it could be beneficial to accumulate again for investors!

We will be discussing WRGL further within our Stock Hub and this Stock Newsletter. WRGL could move up significantly from its current price point!

Canada Leads the Way and Dr. Shannon has Led Canadian Medicine in this Field

Canada Leads the Way and Dr. Shannon has Led Canadian Medicine in this Field

Michael E. Shannon, M.A.,M.Sc.,M.D.
Board Member & Director of Medical Affairs at MZEI

Dr. Shannon received his medical degree from Queen’s University in Canada, which included advanced training in surgery and sports medicine. He also holds post-graduate degrees in neurochemistry and physiology. He has been actively engaged in applied medical research within these areas for over 27 years. He served in the Canadian Forces for 31 years retiring at the rank of Commodore (Brigadier General equivalent) as Deputy Surgeon General for Canada.

Dr. Shannon has served as the Senior Medical Advisor to Medizone International since 2002. In August of 2008 he accepted a position on the Board of Directors of Medizone International and assumed responsibility for medical affairs. In October 2008, he was additionally appointed the President of the Canadian Foundation for Global Health.

First, Canada is hugely important in understanding the statistics involved in hospital infections. Why? In the U.S. these are kept quiet. Covered up. Not reported. Not that Canadian hospitals do not sometimes fudge their data -- but in the United States the hospital industry has done a super job of covering up the SUPER BUGS that reside within their domain and end up killing patients --- ones who were not that sick to begin with.

Ontario hospitals must post any outbreaks, along with their monthly infection rates, online in a searchable database.

People want, need, and have a right to transparency and in the United States the Federal Government and State Legislatures are saying ENOUGH. We want data and statistics, too.

In Canada reducing the number of infections patients pick up is part of a national safety push. The increasing prevalence of drug-resistant infections has made hospitals a reservoir for bacteria and transmission of disease. The U.S. now wants this information as well.

The site, www.myhospitalcare.ca, has been established by the Ontario Hospital Association, a group representing the 155 hospital corporations in Ontario. It uses 39 health indicators, such as C. difficile infection rates and hospital death rates, to inform the public about their hospital. The myhospitalcare.ca website blends data from a variety of sources, such as the Ontario health ministry and the Canadian Institute for Health Information, and then presents the indicators experts believe are of the greatest interest to the public.

Dr. Shannon comes to this project with a full understanding of the dynamics of reporting hospital infections. The reporting will create demand for MZEI's product.

During the first Gulf War, Dr. Shannon served as the senior medical liaison officer for all of the Canadian forces. In 1996 he assumed responsibilities within Health Canada for re-organizing the Canadian blood system. Working with both the provincial and federal governments he oversaw the development of a new corporate entity dedicated exclusively to the management of blood services in Canada.

He was then appointed Director General for the Laboratory Centre for Disease Control, a position he held for three years.

In December 2000, Dr. Shannon left the Canadian federal government to pursue a new career in industry. In that capacity he simultaneously directed a phase III clinical trial in Canada, the United States and Great Britain for an artificial blood substitute product.

He then accepted a special assignment with the Canadian Federal Government Auditor General’s office to conduct a cost benefit analysis of all government sponsored pharmacare programs and make recommendations directly to the Parliament of Canada. His assignment and presentation to Parliament was completed in November 2004.

Dr. Shannon then served on a special assignment to the Canadian Public Health Agency (Center for Disease Control equivalent in the United States) as Senior Medical Advisor. He directed the rebuilding of the Emergency Medical Response Capacity for Canada.

Dr. Shannon has been actively engaged in medical bio-oxidative (O3 based), research since 1987 and was directly responsible for the first human clinical trial to have ever been approved in North America which examined the efficacy of O3 delivered via minor autohemotherapy in the treatment of AIDS.

He was responsible for several primate studies utilizing O3 involving scientists from various departments within the Canadian Federal Government, as well as senior investigators from Medizone International and Cornell University.

Canada is leading the way in this field and Dr. Shannon is leading Canada.

Top Stock 5 – McDonald's

McDonald's (MCD) has been one of my favorite stocks to talk about lately, since it is the "poster stock" for how a weaker dollar boosts corporate profits in multinational companies with a global footprint.

Just recently, the company reported a tremendous 5% increase in international same-store sales for May, fueled largely by favorable currency exchange rates. As the dollar continues to weaken, we will see even bigger numbers from MCD.

The success of McDonald's McCafe business will help to sustain same-store sales growth until the dollar's weakness shifts exchange rates to the company's favor. MCD also has a high dividend yield, which makes it an attractive investment to investors.

Top Stock 4 – Quest Diagnostics

Top Stock 4 – Quest Diagnostics (DGX)

An aging population and a greater emphasis on preventative care are creating a high-growth opportunity for Quest Diagnostics (DGX). This company is the leading provider of independent diagnostic testing in the U.S. It has built a network of more than 2,000 patient service centers across the country, offering its customers a wide array of routine and specialty laboratory tests and services.

DGX posted a nearly 25% jump in earnings for the first quarter and a significant uptick in sales that beat expectations. These are very solid results in an economic environment where most of Quest's primary customers have decided to perform more diagnostic testing in-house to cut spending.

Quest is poised for another round of great earnings, and now is the time to jump into this stock during the lull before the next quarterly reporting season.

Top 5 Stocks for July

Amgen (AMGN) is in the recession-proof health care sector and has seen strong sales and earnings even during the recent turmoil on Wall Street.

Amgen is the largest biotechnology company in the world and has products to fight cancer, kidney disease and arthritis. Amgen currently has five "blockbuster" drugs on the market that generate more than $1 billion in annual sales.

This stock consolidated briefly after reporting a slip in sales at the end of April, but the stock has come roaring back nearly 15% since then.

I expect another big leg up for Amgen in anticipation of 2Q earnings, so get into this company right now.

Top 5 Stocks for July

Top Stock 2 – Apollo (APOL)

Apollo Group (APOL) is a point of great debate, but I am sticking to my guns on this one. I take literally a dozen of questions every week about this stock's gyrations, but my answer is always a resounding "buy" for APOL.

You see, Apollo Group is one of those famous "zig zag" stocks that tends to do well on down market days and moves very differently from the overall stock market. This is because Apollo's University of Phoenix is the #1 private education provider in the nation and has seen booming enrollment as more Americans are laid off.

So as jobless claims make Wall Street grumpy, they also boost this stock. And that's the primary reason that I am recommending Apollo Group – because it helps to stabilize your portfolio on down days.

On top of that, the long-term unemployment picture is very grim. Overall unemployment rose by 787,000 in May to 14.5 million, so the unemployment rate rose from 8.9% to 9.4% to the highest rate in 26 years! Since many displaced workers will likely continue go back to school for retraining, I am confident this trend will pay off for Apollo.

Top 5 Stocks for July

Top Stock 1 – AutoZone (AZO)

AutoZone (AZO) is a recession-proof stock, since the company is capitalizing on the fact that Americans are buying fewer new cars and maintaining their old vehicles longer.

As major car companies deal with bankruptcy, this trend will only continue. In its latest quarter, the company's earnings rose 22%, and sales jumped 8%. Growing year-over-year earnings in this dismal environment is a tremendous feat.

The best part is that this company is poised to pick up a huge chunk of market share as Chrysler and General Motors head down the drain. Since the dealer networks and parts businesses of these companies will likely suffer during the process, AZO will quickly fill the void.
