IceWEB Positions Itself for Rapid Growth Marketwire09:43am EDT



What kinda stuck out from earlier pr on IWEB was section on 'Sales and Distribution'

Sales and Distribution - IceWEB has received a surge in orders since the beginning of 2012, including a Global 50 electronics manufacturer, several federal, state and local government procurements; and a spike in mid-market commercial customers for IceWEB's multi-tiered, unified storage systems.....

And to lesser degree:
IceWEB channel partner commitment has strengthened, with renewed interest from channel partners such as DataSpan, CloudFront Group, DST, Navigate Storage, AR Consultant Group, Promark Technology Solutions, and numerous others due to rising demand and bolstered pipelines for IceWEB's differentiated solutions.

Also noteworthy:
Financial - IceWEB reported its second consecutive quarter of double-digit revenue growth earlier this month, with a 49% topline increase quarter-over-quarter. The company is on a solid financial foundation to sustain its current operations and continued growth.






IWEB saw a sharp pullback friday afternoon following newsleak regarding death of their ceo....
He had unexpectedly passed away. .................Technically, did notice fairly solid footing at .12 into close

.....it IS business as usual and the existing team and interim CEO will not miss a beat...big deals to announce over next few weeks...

By Dumb LUCK I Just Discovered the PERFECT Tech Stock...In My Backyard!

In the context of the three gigantic $TRILLION Megatrends in Enterprise IT

1)      The move to public and private cloud computing and data center based desktop and mobile applications

2)      The transformative power of BIG Data Analytics and what it means to ALL companies

3)      The creation of 100 PETABYTES (1024 terabytes) of data to be stored and analyzed EVERY DAY

I discovered the PERFECT tech stock last week...in my backyard of Northern Virginia...and it’s UNDER .25 a share (for now...more on that in our upcoming report later today). The company is IceWeb, Inc. and its ticker is IWEB.ob

Why do I call this the “Perfect Tech Stock”?

Let me count the ways. If I could dream up the perfect technology stock for 2012 and the foreseeable future it would be:

1. A Direct Beneficiary of the 2 Most MASSIVE Mega Trends in The IT World: Cloud Computing/Storage and Big Data Analytics

2. Be the low cost solution to the biggest problem associated with Cloud Computing and Data Analytics: MASSIVE Daily Creation and Storage of Unstructured Data

3. Benefit from the Federal Government’s $100 Billion MANDATE to “Move Government IT To the Cloud by 2015”

4. Be virtually invisible to Wall Street and technology investors

5. Be RIGHT In the Middle of the MONSTER $20 Billion Feeding Frenzy of Acquisitions of Storage Solution Companies from the Monster IT Giants: EMC, IBM, HP, DELL and NetApp

6. Be RIGHT In the Middle of the MONSTER Enterprise IPO’s Coming To Market

Because IceWeb, Inc. (IWEB) is PERFECTLY positioned as the low cost/high efficiency solution to the perfect storm of MASSIVE unstructured data being collected and stored EVERY minute of every hour of each day in 186 countries worldwide, I call them the “perfect stock.”

The fact that I found them SO far off Wall Street’s technology stock radar made me even MORE excited to own this stock...which I will 24 HOURS after you receive this message.

The fact that there is feeding frenzy of buy-outs in this space makes Ice Web and its lowest cost/highest performance open source storage software/hardware solution a PRIME take out play—in my mind the only question is WHEN not IF.

Why?

Here is the story of $20 BILLION in unstructured data storage hardware and software M&A in the last 12-18 months...breathtaking.

07/20/09	Data Domain	Backup and Archive	2,100,000,000	263,302,000	7.98

Breathtaking isn’t it? The storage technology feeding frenzy is as staggering as it is real.

But why the orgy of acquisitions by Tech Titans in data storage land?

Cloud Computing and Big Data Analytics. It is the daily creation of hundreds of PETABYTES (again a petabyte is one quadrillion bytes, or 1024 terabytes) of data coming from cloud computing and big data analytics. NONE of this was around 10 years...heck 5 years ago.

So how big IS a Petabyte of data in understandable terms?

• 1 Petabyte is 20 MILLION Four Drawer Filing Cabinets FILLED with Text
• 1 Petabyte is 13.3 YEARS of HD-TV Video
• 1.5 Petabytes is the 10 BILLION Photos on Facebook
• 20 Petabytes is the ENTIRE Hard Drive Space Manufactured in 1995
• 50 Petabytes is the entire written works on mankind from the beginning of recorded history in ALL Launguages and Countries

Everyday Google is creating 20 petabytes of unstructured data...Facebook I am sure creates similar amounts with 300 million photos and tens of millions of video’s posted every day.

THEN there is the move to the FREE cloud storage deals...and of course enterprise cloud computing services from Amazon (and now Microsoft and Google announcing their own competing enterprise cloud computing services last week).

And of course the IPO frenzy POST FACEBOOK for enterprise software and cloud computing companies.

Workday, Inc. will probably be the biggest among a pending batch of enterprise-oriented IPOs set for summer and fall. Then there is Violin Memory Inc. Reuters is reporting that cloud storage and collaboration concern Box.net, Inc. is looking like it's eyeing an IPO in 2013. The bankers are going to be busy now that the Facebook frenzy is over.

You and I know that EVERY tech investor is going to be looking for that "undiscovered" stock that is a beneficiary from the massive growth (and data center storage needs) from Facebook, Workday and the incredible growth of cloud storage companies like:

	FREE Storage Limit  (In Gigabytes)
	5 gigabytes
	2 gigabytes
	5 gigabytes
	5 gigabytes
	7 gigabytes
	5 gigabytes
	5 gigabytes

For those of you who still use thumb drives and external hard drives to store your unstructured data—i.e., email, videos, pictures, music, et al...WAKE UP MAN!!! Think of cloud storage as just a no-brainer way to back up all that digital stuff. Add IN the ability to sync all your digital stuff to ALL your digital gadgets and NOW you get cloud storage.

And did I mention you get up to 7 GIGABYTES of unstructured data storage in the cloud FREE from these companies? Or that Apple has recently opened the $billon iCloud data center in North Carolina...and already has plans for at LEAST three more?

Who provides the cheapest storage box and more important the lowest cost/highest performance solution to all these public (and private enterprise) data storage centers? To all the FREE cloud data storage companies? To Facebook? To Amazon and Apple? To big telco cloud players like Verizon...AT&T...and big internal private clouds like AOL, The Federal Government, Fortune 1000 companies?

Who provides the easiest and most cost effective unstructured cloud based data storage system to the MILLIONS of companies like NBT who use Big Data Analytic software to figure out how to sell more stuff to their customers?

 

Which unstructured storage solution was named “Best In Class” by numerous independent IT consulting firms in 2011 and 2012? Which company is right in the middle of the 10 Biggest Tech Trends of 2012:

1. Private Clouds
2. Virtualization
3. Social Business
4. Mobile Computing
5. Storage Trends
6. Advanced Business Analytics
7. The Personalized Web
8. Video-enabled Business Processes
9. Service Oriented Architecture
10. Sustainability and IT

You get the point.

Bottom-line...with the new distribution deals IceWeb has recently put in place...with the new deal they have with one of the hottest cloud technology companies on the planet Fusion-IO, with new deals coming with ALL the major petabyte-a-day storage creators and private datacenters (the Amazons, Facebooks, AOLs, Verizons of the world) Ice Web is almost magically in the right place with the exactly right product at the right time.

And let’s not forget the Federal Government’s MANDATE to close over 700 of their datacenters and move ALL government IT to...the cloud. That is a $100 billion mandate over the next few years—Democrat or Republican in the White House.

What’s IceWeb worth when it gets to $50 million in sales? $100 million in revenues? We will have much more for you on IceWeb, Inc. in a later report and then complete equities research report, but I wanted you to get a HEAD START on acquiring shares UNDER .25 before all the fundamental news hits the tape about IWEB.

Sometimes it’s better to be lucky than good...I’ll take lucky and a few hundred thousand shares of IWEB any day.

MIMV giving up recent run to .50s last pullback found footing around .20...Viable facebook related takeover candidate. MIMV.OB 11:58am EDT 0.25 0.10 28.57% 8,500 : Analysis

Debate PLPL for ongoing strength / to .40....CHGI for stabbing 1 on last week strength rebuilding.

 

 

 

Focus:

 

 

 

 

Stick with PLPL for momentum / stabbing .40 with a little patience...

 

In most recent qtr, the stock analyzer had this to say: 

PLPL has the potential to be a worldwide giant and they have already established a worldwide presence with its headquarters in Seattle, office in London and offices and sizable land holdings in South Africa.
Nutraceuticals and cosmeceuticals are in similar categories, and green tea leaves can be a source for both.  They’re basically nutrition or cosmetic products that are pharmaceutical grade, but not actually real prescription drugs or cosmetics.


PLPL is in all three of these related industries, nutraceuticals, cosmeceuticals and green tea. Nutraceuticals could be worth more than $243 billion in sales by 2015 and cosmeceuticals could be an $8 billion a year market by then. Green tea is growing at 13-14% a year.
PLPL also has the financing to get their products to market. Company officials recently announced a $13 million loan had been approved for its South African subsidiary, Dunn Roman Holdings Africa (Proprietary) Ltd. This is secured loan financing from the Land and Development Bank of South Africa for $13 million. The funds will start flowing to the company this month.
The money from the loan will be used to develop the Senteeko tea estate in Mpumalanga, South Africa. PLPL will be growing green tea and using a proprietary technology to produce a bioavailable botanical extract that will be exclusively sold by PLPL as an ingredient for the beverage and wellness industries.
PLPL’s South African subsidiary Dunn Roman Holdings Africa (Proprietary) Ltd could make this stock extremely valuable in the long run. It is currently valued at more than $50 million. Tea estates, timber plantations and the infrastructure on those properties are valued at more than $8 million. The company projects a net profit from Dunn Roman of $19 million by 2017.

NBT equities also had this to say last week in their nbt weekly report:

http://nbtequitiesresearch.com/report/nbt-week-nbt-average-returns-of-108-since-april-improves-on-79-net-gains-in-q1-2012

Discussion: Is Thompson's ouster a win for shareholders?

Greece down to its last €1.5B as deadlock remains. Greece has under €1.5B left, newspaper Imerisia reports (via Bloomberg), news that comes as the top political parties are due to meet again today in an attempt to form a coalition.

Top Economic & Other News
California deficit balloons to $16B. California faces a deficit of $16B, Governor Jerry Brown said over the weekend, not the $9B he'd estimated in January.

What are the odds of California seceding from the dollar? Opinion: Are California muni ETFs a smart investment?
China heeds calls to ease. China is cutting the reserve ratio requirement for large banks by 50 bps to 20%. The move follows weak data last week and is the third reduction in six months, although economists are divided about the effectiveness of the action.

DOJ in the dark over number of Wall Street convictions. Do you know how many executives have been convicted of criminal wrongdoing connected to the financial crisis? Neither does the Justice Department. Officials say they don't track defendants' business titles, and therefore have no way to provide a comprehensive list of Wall Street convictions stemming from the 2008 meltdown. Opinion: Banks start to recognize reality of second liens.
