Revolutionary New Credit Card from Citi

Shares to Watch - Citibank's Revolutionary New Credit Card

Citibank is planning to to begin testing a new credit card labeled Card 2.0, or 2G, on consumers. The new credit card is fitted with an LED display, buttons, and encryption technology all on an ordinary sized credit card. The aim is for the Citi card to revolutionize the credit card industry.

Jeff Mullen CEO of Dynamics Inc. designers of the card, said “We are trying to be the innovation arm of an industry that has never had one.”

Citi intends starting tests next month, with the aim of launching the credit cards in mid-2011. They hope the new innovative product will attract customers who may otherwise have taken their credit card business elsewhere.

Holders of the new credit card will be able to pay with rewards points at the register. Terry O'Neil Executive VP of Citi Cards said “We’ve developed a proprietary technology that will allow Citi to do the conversion [of rewards points to dollars] when the transaction comes through.”

The new card has another new and potentially more interesting feature - its s fraud protection technology. The technology used in the new credit card, which may one day combine credit and debit accounts, allows the card issuer to deactivate the card remotely, by rewriting its magnetic strip and making it useless. The hope is that 2G will drastically lower the amount of card theft, and thus the number of fraudulent charges.

The new credit card could be a winner for Citibank it will be interesting to see the results of the consumer tests.

Potential Takeover Targets

Stock Market Trading - Potential US Takeover Targets

Don't you just love surprises ! Especially when they arrive unexpected in your e-mail box and invite you to sign up for stock market tips. Well I gave them my e-mail address (which they already had anyway) and got the possible takeover target tips. They are for US stocks so may be of interest to folks who invest in North American stocks. They are all also under $10.

Ballantyne Strong, Inc. (AMEX: BTN) - a leader in the transition to digital and 3-D, and making profits as the transition grips the industry.

BTN can outfit a theater, and is one-stop shopping mall for folks who want to get a movie theater up-and-running, or want `to retrofit an older theater with digital or 3-D technology.

It recently reported a surge in revenues 67% to $32.7 million—a quarterly record—and earnings rose to $2.8 million.

Takeover Target 2
Strong Alliances

Anheuser-Busch InBev (BUD)— owns 36% of the company and is its distributor. It pays big dividends and is expanding rapidly. 3 year revenue growth of an average of 50% annually and net income growth of 35% a year.

Takeover Target 3:
Lionbridge Technologies
Lionbridge Technologies (NASDAQ: LIOX) provides language, development and testing services to businesses throughout the world, given the globalization that is going on, there is plenty of money to be made.

The 10 largest software companies and 5 largest Internet portals in the world use LIOX to help them localize their products e.g. Merck, Expedia, Porsche, Motorola, Oracle, Nokia, Sony Ericsson and IBM.

Takeover Target 4
Diversified LeaderThe third-largest temporary healthcare staffing company in the U.S.

Takeover Target 5:
International DistributorThe company manufactures and modifies, products produced by independent companies, to their own specific modifications to customize them for its customers and sell them under the company’s private brands e.g. radio frequency (RF) and microwave components, power semiconductors, electron tubes, microwave generators and data display monitors. RF, wireless and power divisions—will grow like Topsy as the recovery picks upd.

So there you have it 5 possible takeover targets as tipped by an ex-securities analyst in the brokerage industry. They sound reasonable enough but potential takeover targets is a rather loose term, but I'll be keeping an eye on them all the same to see how they turn out. And why do people trading stock on the stock market need to ply their wares via my mailbox ? That implies, as far as I'm concerned, that they are making their living selling stuff rather than actually investing on the stock market. Why don't they give all their tips away free not just a few to draw you into their e-mail list ? They may even manage to drive up the price of the stocks they have bought that way if they sent out enough e-mails. I wonder if anyone else has thought of that ?

Stock Market Today - Pfizer buys King Pharmaceuticals

Pfizer Inc. (PFE) has reached an agreement to acquire buy King Pharmaceuticals Inc. (KG) for $3.6 bn in cash. The deal is expected to soften the loss of market exclusivity for Lipitor, Pfizer's blockbuster treatment.

Pfizer, is the world's largest pharmaceutical medicines maker in the world by sales, after acquiring Wyeth for $68 bn. The Wyeth lead to a significant diversification of Pfizer's business.

Pfizer CFOr Frank D'Amelio said today "We believe the transaction is attractive to shareholders."

Herman Saftlas analyst at Standard & Poor's said the King deal was a "good strategic fit" with Pfizer, and he expects Pfizer to continue to do similar deals to offset its patent losses.

Pfizer estimated it could lead to cost savings of at least $200 million a year by the end of 2013.

Questor Share Tips
May Gurney - Buy at 206p - worries about cuts have hit the shares hard. They have fallen 5% below the initial recommendation price, at one point this year they were above 270p. Over 95% of contracts are long-term. The CEO told Questor the company has cut a number of staff to make any cuts easier to manage – but he said bins still need to be emptied and potholes need to be filled.

Anglo American - buy at 2726p - high commodiity prices make this a long-term play

Questor's Podcast - fund managers say never invest in Russia but Questor thinks there are very good reasons to invest there due to its large deposits of natural gas, petrol and coal, large Arctic territorial waters. His recommendations are to invest in Russia by buying shares in BP or Gazprom, which is a pure Russia play and has 70% of world's natural gas reserves. Russia is not the faint-hearted he says but if you are risk-averse then there is JP Morgans Russian Securities Investment Fund (JRS).

Midas Share Tips Saturday

Buy Dunelm (DNLM) at 420p. Dunelm is a chain of over 100 stores. Selling a broad range of household products. A solid company run by experienced managers with a supportive and experienced founding family.

Mulberry - luxury Mulberry handbags and shoes etc ... the price has risen from 206p in June by 138% to 490p. An extraordinary performance - but what should investors do now? Supporters say it has real potential, but recent increases are eyecatching. If you bought back in June sell 50% to 70% to lock in some profit and keep the rest. Don't forget shareholders get a 20% discount on Mulberry products sold in their stores.

Investment Share Tips
Premier Foods – Sell at 18p
WS Atkins – Buy at 738p - given as a buy when it was at 571.5p in February. Despite rise in share price it is still inexpensive. The yield of over 4% is also nice. Still a buy.
AssetCo - Buy at 62p - supplies equipment for fire services in London and Lincolnshire - also mandated to supply staff and equipment in the event of major incidents - strikes, terrorist attack or the Olympics - contracts should be resilient in face of spending cuts - formula has been so sucessful AssetCo is selling it overseas: to Abu Dhabi's air force and is also managing the construction of a "disaster city" training area. If this is a success more could follow from that region.

Mortgage squeeze getting tighter, Bank says

Investment Share Tips
Compass - Hold at 530.5p
Icap - Buy at 431.5p - Can be seen as undervalued. The recent creation of an electronic market for euro interest rate swaps, the world's largest financial market (depending on how you measure it), is a statement of intent and shows Icap's vision.
Regal Petroleum - Avoid at 18.5p - Yesterday Regal's shares fell by 30% to their lowest ever price - they have fallen around 80% in the last 12 months. Keith Henry, the Regal chairman will take over as CEO and lead a strategic review to cut costs, optimise production and strengthen the cash position. Regal will sell its Barlad concession for $25m in cash. But improvements may take a long time. This is not the time to go bargain hunting.
