Please review 12 stocks that we feel are super cheap and have the potential to
return large gains during the next 12 months!
This financial meltdown has cause hedge funds, mutual funds, institutions and
regular investor types to sell because of margin calls, redemption and plain vanilla PANIC!
Oct 26, 2008 An interesting note: Our stock pick of the year for 2008 has turned out to be one of our stellar performers that continues to appreciate in this 100 year storm of wealth destruction-
We first recommended ADG on or about Sept 03, 2007 @ $4.50- then proceeded on January 1, 2008 we named ADG as our "stock pick of 2008" ( $5.77) currently ADG traded at $8.00 a few day ago-now trades at $7.00- still a 36% & 18% gain respectfully! Even if the world is imploding and economies are sinking into a big black hole-- it still appears that military gear is still in great demand- We remain very Bullish on the group and you will find another military speculation within our current list of fire sale bargain basement distressed severely fundamentally undervalued stocks that in our opinion should be purchased!
We know the pain from this current market rout and actually are not sure if it is nearing a bottom but at the rate of collapse that the Dow and NASDAQ are experiencing we only have around 1 month or so until the indexes reach Zero!
These are 12 stocks that we believe can help us regain some of our financial wealth that has evaporated during the past year and especially during the past 2 months. Many of the mentioned stocks have fallen 60-70% from Oct 1, 2008- A wealth implosion that is a once in a century event! We much remain calm and positive and stop listening to the chaos that is being spread by the talking heads and print media- focus on discounted value and realize that the herd is always wrong!!

- Asia Pacific Wire & Cable (AWRCF.OB) $1.15 Leading manufacturer of wire and cable products for teleco, power and enameled wire industries in select markets in the Asia Pacific region. We recommended AWRCF.OB 1 1/2 years ago @ $1.00- has been as high as $6.50 during 2008. 13.8 million shares outstanding, rev for 6 months ending June 30th $252 million and net income/sh of .13, cash/sh $3.85, stated BK $10.00 ( does not include updated values for land and buildings- could easily add a few more $$'s to stated bk) .

PSR est. .03, PE est. of 4.4X , trading a 1/10th of book and 1/3rd of cash- major exchange listing is anticipated according to management's plan.
- Pride Business Development Holdings (PDVG.PK) .15 An unknown sleeper with extra huge upside potential during the next 3 to 12 months. A military play that has players from top tier lobby firms located in Washington DC feeding business to newly formed sub of Pride. Recently announced a $278 million 10 year contract with Pride to construct naval vessels with stealth material for insulation and heat shielding characteristics. Mr Landrem, Chairman of PDVG.PK is well connected to the Military Industrial Complex and we believe that during the next few weeks additional contracts will be released. The company is actively updating its financials and intends to become fully reporting with the SEC near term and release completed 8k filings outlining the business plan for 09's meteoric revenue growth and earnings. At present around 50 million shares are outstanding and fully diluted. Whether we are in a severe or mild economic downturn the military complex is usually shielded. Great speculation for troubling times with the potential of extra ordinary returns. Attractive $28 million NOL should not be overlooked- will shield federal tax liability for a few years.
- Moore-Handley ( MHCO.pk) $1.05 Regional distributor of hardware and home center products. Rev for 3rd Q reached $40 million and net of .04. For the 9 months ending Sept 08 rev reached $118 million and posted a .08 loss. At present there are only 1.6 million shares outstanding with a stated book value of $6.22/sh ( does not take into account the large land horde that surrounds the center that adds a few more dollars to the stated bk). If you are not buy a new house for a very long time you must maintain the older house, which is good for MHCO.pk. Currently trading at less than 1/6 stated bk, PSR of .01 and we anticipate that margins will recover for 09 as well as share price--perfect takeover candidate at current levels--The whole company is being valued at $1.6 million and rev for the year will reach $160 million. 52 week range $1.05-$4.80
