Sir Winston Churchill from Their Finest Hour We are working on a very = special edition custom tailored for bargain hunters. The last three weeks h= ave led investors to believe there are other directions stocks can go besid= es straight down. There are many technology stocks trading at less than 1= % of their previous highs. Stocks are so low the NASDAQ has suspended its m= inimum $1 bid rule for the remainder of the year and has announced it will = review the rule early next year. Unlike most market environments, individ= ual investors have a competitive advantage over fund managers with stocks a= t these levels. Most fund managers have thresholds below which they are not= allowed to hold stocks. Many funds cannot hold stocks below $5, and others= have a $1 threshold. Fund managers have been forced to sell stocks at thes= e levels in order to comply with the rules of their fund, oftentimes agains= t their personal wishes and their own common sense. Fund managers will be a= ble to purchase these stocks again once they appreciate above $1 and $5. = We are working on a list of stocks with compelling values that are very ove= rsold. In order to make the list, the stock must be trading below the cash = value the company has per share, and have little or no debt. We will try to= publish this exciting edition next weekend. We might call it the "Riskless= Rebound" edition. Stayed tuned. [IMAGE] Energy Power Systems (OTC BB: = EYPSF) Updated Profile [IMAGE] Followers of Energy Power know it has been = trading up and down the charts over the last 2 weeks. We are suggesting the= company change its symbol to OTIS as the stock goes up and down like an Ot= is Elevator. For investors looking for more information on Energy Power, = the editors of the OTC Journal have updated our original profile to reflect= changing corporate events subsequent to the original release on February 1= 2th.

[IMAGE] Envoy Communications (NASDAQ: ECGI) Update= [IMAGE] Our inbox is filled with questions on Envoy as the stocks fades i= nto the oblivion of the $1 range. The stock is behaving as if there is some= thing wrong with the company. We spoke with management briefly this week = about this issue. At the corporate level nothing has changed. Fiscal 2001, = which ended at the end of September, still looks like roughly $10 million C= DN in EBITDA profits. As of right now, business for fiscal 2002 looks about= the same as 2001. The stock is trading at about 3 times 2002 EBITDA. The i= ndustry average is currently 11 times 2002 EBITDA. What's the explanation= for this pathetic performance? Simple- management is doing nothing at this= time to market their company to investors. Their only audience is the memb= ers of the OTC Journal. A plan for a nationwide institutional road show w= as in place prior to Attack on America, but that is now on hold. We can onl= y hope management will wake up and recognize their responsibility to shareh= olders and get proactive in telling their story. Tax selling could hurt = this stock, so it could go lower. One can only hope that despite management= 's failure to get out and tell their story, someone will come along and rec= ognize the inherent value in this company. Bottom line- Not worth selling= at this price, but it could go lower.
