WESTON, Fla., Jan. 22, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- Wall Street Capital Fundings "Stocks to Watch" this morning covers the following: Environmental Technologies, Inc. (Other OTC:EMTI), CMGI Inc. (Nasdaq:CMGI), US Unwired Inc. (OTCBB:UNWR) and Ramp Corporation (AMEX:RCO).
Aggressive investors will be watching Environmental Technologies, Inc. (Other OTC:EMTI) this morning! Yesterday after the markets closed, the company issued a press release announcing that it has chosen Munir Al-Sarraj to fulfill the position of Director of Marketing for the Company's leading-edge security products throughout the United Arab Emirates! Mr. Al-Sarraj is a highly successful businessman with an enviable reputation and strong ties to the international business community throughout the entire security-conscious region. Mr. Sarraj's initial efforts will be to establish a network of distributorships throughout the area and to participate in the market introduction of Computer Guard, the Company's first security product, scheduled for commercial launch this spring.
This could be more great news for investors! Government, Corporate, and Personal security issues are given very high priority throughout the Middle East and together represent an enormous market potential for virtually all of Environmental Technologies' state-of-the-art security devices. Through the Company's planned network of distributorships in the region, it anticipates building a strong presence in an area where security is paramount.
Computer Guard -- directly addresses what has emerged in recent years as an international epidemic -- THEFT OF LAPTOP COMPUTERS AND THE COUNTLESS BILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF VALUABLE AND CRITICAL DATA THEY CONTAIN. Essentially, the Computer Guard System protects the user's information by rendering the computer useless whenever the authorized user is away from the machine. Environmental Technologies believes that the very low price of Computer Guard, at approximately $50.00 retail, will facilitate rapid market penetration and the capture of a significant share of the dynamic laptop security market in the foreseeable future.
Laptop Computer Theft -- results in two distinct types of loss: the cost of the actual hardware, usually $2000 -- $3000 per unit (the FBI estimates that 97% of stolen computer equipment is never recovered) and, the much higher cost of the lost data contained on the laptop's hard drive.
Keep your eyes on this company! In case you are not familiar with it; Environmental Technologies' products currently being developed for specific market applications include short and long-range detection devices that can be hidden in clothing, or on valuables, and that will emit signals to loved ones or owners of articles. The technology provides a capability that is ideal for families living in fear of their children being kidnapped, or of having elderly family members, suffering from dementia or any other form of memory loss, wander off aimlessly without their loved one's knowledge. Alarmingly, kidnapping in North America has risen to an all-time high of over 800 persons per day! "Find-A-Shipment," enabling real-time shipment tracking is another promising application under development, and the introduction of a device that will be embedded in credit cards, passports, etc., to thwart theft and quickly located lost cards is expected to follow. The stock closed yesterday at just over twenty cents a share.
Other stocks showing interesting activity yesterday were: CMGI Inc. (Nasdaq:CMGI) up 11.6% on 30.8 million shares traded, US Unwired Inc. (OTCBB:UNWR) up 11.4% on 2.2 million shares traded and Ramp Corporation (AMEX:RCO) up 9.2% on 12.7 million shares traded.
Commentary:
"Unemployment may be dipping lately, down from 6.0% in November to 5.9% so far in 2004, but the jobs created have been slow in coming, according to most economists. If you want to apply for a job overseas altering your resume might be in order. Check out www.jobweb.com under library/international writing to fit the resume into the country that looks good. Creating an international, professional looking resume is a must in these competitive times. Excitement, adventure, exotic ports, and... might follow," Stated Sonja Rudd in Wall Street News Alert's daily commentary continued at: http://www.WallStreetNewsAlert.com.
