Here is a nice investigation into the former stock promoters Dan Ryan, Carol McKeown, Eric Van Nguyen, and money man Tony Papa. Keep in mind that Dan and Carol, while coming off as sympathetic figures, ran a stock promotion business and are alleged to have violated US laws. Before the SEC sued them I alleged the same thing and they put out a PR threatening me with a libel lawsuit (that PR is no longer available online).
Disclaimer. No positions in any stock mentioned. Dan and Carol never followed through on their threat to sue me. This blog has a terms of use that is incorporated by reference into this post; you can find all my disclaimers and disclosures there as well.
