Advisors' Opinion:- [By Patrick M. Sheridan]
Criminals would pay about 40% of the face value of the bills for a "10 stack," or $10,000 worth of the bills, and then use the notes at local CVS (CVS) drugstores, car washes or Lowe's (LOW) home improvement stores. Most of the bills were circulated along the Interstate-95 corridor in the East.

Recently giant food conglomerate, Cargill announced it had partnered with the Swiss biosynthetic pharmaceutical company, Evolva (EVE:SW), to develop a more consistent and less expensive stevia sweetener via Evolva�� microbial fermentation-based process.� This is big news for the future of stevia because a microbial fermentation-based process does not have to rely on soil conditions or weather, and stevia can be manufactured anywhere, thus having the potential of guaranteeing an endless supply line of stevia.� Through the microbial fermentation, the manufacturer has the capability to process the key sweet individual components of stevia using low-cost plant sugars, and allows for the individual components of stevia, regardless of how minute, to be developed creating blends in any volume, which then could open the door for these manufacturers to fine-tune its stevia to local tastes.� But what would be most attractive is that, because the fermentation process does not require the entire plant, the method could conceivably shave upwards of 70% off the cost of producing stevia extracts.�

Advisors' Opinion:- [By Bryan Murphy]
What do you get when you cross the theme park division of The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS), zombies, aliens, Bigfoot, and a resort? You get a very fun - and very intense - vacation experience. You get a company called Independent Film Development Corporation (OTCMKTS:IFLM). And if you're an investor, you may also get a pretty decent payback period once the called Independent Film Development Corporation - aka IndyFilmCorp - is fully up and running with the first of what it expects to be several fear-focused theme parks that meet the new consumers "needs and wants" that Disney doesn't.
- [By Bryan Murphy]
The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS) needs to look over its shoulder. For that matter, Lions Gate Entertainment Corp. (NYSE:LGF) may want to do the same. There's a little company called Independent Film Development Corporation (OTCMKTS:IFLM) that could become a big threat to both of those major players soon, now� that a nagging monkey is officially off its back.

Advisors' Opinion:- [By stanh30]
It does not matter if it�� a penny stock, all that matters is whether or not my reasoning is correct. However, in June the Global Depositary Shares (GDS) will undergo a 60:1 reverse split (pending shareholder approval) and the stock will no longer be a penny stock. Unfortunately the reverse split will occur after the June 12, 2014 record date for determining the persons and/or entities liable to the Depositary for the annual fee of $0.02 per Global Depositary shares for depositary services. This is an enormous fee for GDS shares, but one that I will pay due to the extreme undervaluation. Just remember that if you purchase the GDS shares on or before June 12th you are effectively paying an extra $0.02 per share.
