I first noticed the promotion of Alkame Holdings (ALKM) in an online ad last night as I was reading Cracked.com on my phone. I have not received any emails promoting ALKM. Unfortunately I couldn’t take a screenshot of the ad but it linked to this page: http://www.wallstreetgiants.com/stock-report-alkame-holdings-alkm.php
ALKM has not yet traded much volume. I love the pseudo-scientific mumbo-jumbo on their website explaining their water:
It’s because Alkame Water has been specially treated with a patented system to create a truly pure and great tasting water that is alkaline and so much more. It’s not only alkaline, but it’s micro-clustered for antioxidant protection, and the only water patented for high levels of stabilized dissolved oxygen and comes from a pristine water source. When you add up all of the features and benefits Alkame Water provides you might not only enhance your energy levels, but to those around you too. All of these things add up to the ultimate health and wellness premium alkaline water.
I tweeted about the ad last night:
