SANTA CLARA, Calif., March 22, 2000 (PRIMEZONE) -- The BullTrade.com special membership provides "Stock Alerts" that have provided impressive returns in 1999. Ron Huff, a long time BullTrade.com special member, aptly describes the service as the "best trading information you can get for only $100 per month." "One trade can easily pay for a year's membership several times over." Ron Huff is one of the many BullTrade.com (http://www.bulltrade.com) special subscribers that have realized gains as high as 400% on single trades in 1999. June started with a nice gain as BullTrade.com recommended buying Honeywell (NYSE:HON) prior to the weekend because of a potential merger with Allied Signal. On Monday, the deal was announced and special subscribers realized gains as high as 20%.
Late in June, BullTrade.com recommended buying Sequent around $13 because of high option activity and a rumored buyout by IBM (NYSE:IBM). Shortly afterwards, IBM announced the buyout and subscribers saw a 30% gain. On July 1st, a recommendation to buy Western Wire (Nasdaq:WWCA) at $29 due to an profitable within a couple weeks. Later in July, Western Wire eclipsed $40/share, allowing for another 30% gain.
Great picks continued in July as a recommendation to buy Viewcast.com (NASDAQ:VCST) under $8 was made. By the following day, on takeover speculation alone, the stock jumped to $10, allowing for a quick 25% gain. Also in early July, a recommendation to buy Westell Tech (Nasdaq:WSTL) close to $7 turned into another fast 25% gain as takeover speculation pushed the stock towards $10. Again, in the middle of July, BullTrade.com recommended buying AudioHighway (Nasdaq:AHWY) around $18 due to speculation that AOL (NYSE:AOL) would purchase the company and that AudioHighway would announce patent rights. The following day, the stock hit a high of $25 on news with Microsoft (Nasdaq:MSFT) allowing for an almost 40% gain.
The largest gain came in August when BullTrade.com recommended buying Grand Toys (Nasdaq:GRIN) under $7/share due to the Pokemon craze. Later in the month, Grand Toys traded at a high of just over $30, allowing for a 400% gain. In September, BullTrade.com recommended buying Incyte Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq:INCY) due to the rise in other biotechs like Affymetrix (Nasdaq:AFFX) and Human Genome (Nasdaq:HGSI). The timing turned out to be the 52-week low for Incyte, which has recently come within a half point of $200/share.
