Deutsche B�rse Launches pan-European Blue Chip Trading on 'Xetra International Market'

Mon, 2 Nov 2009 10:59:47 EST

Key markets to be linked up gradually/ Coverage of DJ EURO STOXX 50 equities by mid-January 2010

Deutsche B�rse has launched the initial phase of its pan-European trading segment 'Xetra International Market' (XIM). As of today, Xetra participants can trade European blue chips via XIM and settle the transactions in their domestic market. The first stocks to be available for trading on XIM are the most liquid ones from Belgium, France and the Netherlands. These will be joined in a few weeks by stocks from Finland and Spain, and in mid-January 2010 by the Italian blue chips.

By introducing the individual markets progressively until mid-January 2010, Deutsche B�rse is addressing the requirements of the market participants. All processes, systems and interfaces for trading, clearing and settlement can now be checked per domestic market along the entire process chain and integrated gradually.

By the end of the initial phase, a total of 96 equities in the trading currency EUR will have been accepted into the XIM trading segment. These will comprise the stocks from the DJ EURO STOXX 50® index and highly liquid stocks from other indices.

Transactions executed on Xetra International Market will be offset via Eurex Clearing and settled cost-effectively in the respective domestic markets. Clearstream forms the interface between Eurex Clearing and the domestic markets enabling it to use the latter's settlement liquidity.

Due to top market quality, the competitive price model, and the low set-up costs for participants, XIM will significantly strengthen Deutsche B�rse's competitive position on the European equities trading market. Deutsche B�rse Group uses economies of scale for the new trading segment on Xetra and in the clearing house as XIM is set up on the existing infrastructure, generating hardly any additional costs in system operation. Deutsche B�rse thus expects XIM to be a very sustainable business model.

Xetra® is a registered trademark of Deutsche B�rse AG.
DJ EURO STOXX50® is a registered trademark of STOXX Ltd. Formed in 1998, STOXX Ltd. is a joint venture between Deutsche B�rse Group, Dow Jones & Company and SIX Swiss Exchange.

Awaiting IND Targetting a Twenty-Eight Billion Dollar Market (OTC:ACTC.OB)

Mon, 2 Nov 2009 09:53:17 EST

MiV Investments Inc. has initiated independent research coverage on Advanced Cell Technology Inc. (OTC:ACTC.OB), which is anticipating a filing of an investigational new drug (IND) application which takes on a 28B Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) market, with over 30 million people affected by the disease. The company expects to file the IND prior to the end of Q409.

Macular degeneration is a medical condition usually of older adults that results in a loss of vision in the center of the visual field (the macula) because of damage to the retina. It occurs in 'dry' and 'wet' forms. It is a major cause of visual impairment in the elderly ( greater than 50 years).

Macular degeneration can make it difficult or impossible to read or recognize faces, although enough peripheral vision remains to allow other activities of daily life. There is no other existing therapeutic treatments which regenerate the lost cells, leaving 90% of Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) patients with dry variety as an unmet need. This condition affects more than 15% of elders aged 75 and above, leaving it as one of the top threats to an elder's health.

The company has also taken major strides, recently moving from the PINK sheets, to the OTC bulletin and sufficing the qualifications needed to be pink sheets compliant. Technicals on the company's stock have also been highly bullish as of late, sitting at a nine month price low, all the while anticipating news on what could be the beginning of a revolutionary new drug.

The company is in preparation of its first IND filing with the Food and Drug Administration for its retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cell program for the treatment of various eye diseases. The Company noted that in the next few weeks, it will be completing the preclinical work necessary for filing the IND.

To date, no adverse events have occurred in testing. The results will be part of the submission which Advanced Cell expects to submit to the FDA prior to the end of the year. 'We are very pleased with the long-term safety and efficacy data,' said Dr. Robert Lanza, ACT's Chief Scientific Officer. 'We have carried out pre-clinical studies using these cells in multiple animal models, and to-date have not seen any teratoma formation or untoward pathological reactions. We are optimistic that human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) will serve as a potentially safe and inexhaustible source of RPE for the treatment of a range of macular degenerative diseases.'

Existing therapies only treat the condition and do not regenerate cells of the macula that have been damaged. Plus, existing therapies only treat wet AMD, not dry AMD, leaving a significant unmet need for an effective treatment for the 90% of AMD patients who have the dry variety. The company expects to file an IND for its RPE program by end of 2009.

About Advanced Cell Technology, Inc.

Advanced Cell Technology, Inc. is a biotechnology company focused on developing and commercializing human embryonic and adult stem cell technology in the field of regenerative medicine. The Company has acquired, developed and maintain a portfolio of patents and patent applications that form the base for its research and development efforts in the area of embryonic and adult stem cell research. The Company's technology base, in combination with its know-how, provides an advantage and will facilitate the successful development and commercialization of products for use in treatment of an array of chronic degenerative diseases and in regenerative repair of acute disease, such as trauma, myocardial infarction and burns. The Company's embryonic stem (ES) cell research programs are divided into three core categories: cellular reprogramming, reduced complexity program, and stem cell differentiation.

Spectrum Wine Auctions Premiere Live Auction Live by Satellite at Crown Wine Cellars Hong Kong November 22

Tue, 27 Oct 2009 20:57:40 EST

Hong Kong, 28 October, 2009 – Spectrum Wine Auctions, the world's newest live and online auction house of fine collectible wine, announced today that it will simulcast its premiere live auction LIVE via satellite at Crown Wine Cellars in Hong Kong at 9:00AM local Hong Kong time on 22 November, 2009. Crown Wine Cellars is located at 18 Deep Water Bay Drive, Shouson Hill, Hong Kong Island, Hong Kong; telephone +852.2580.6287. www.crownwinecellars.com

Spectrum has anchored the auction with a selection of wines from 'The Aubrey McClendon Collection.' The auction's 686 lots comprise 5,500 total bottles; 3,900 come from the McClendon Collection. It simultaneously takes place 21 November at 5:00PM Pacific Standard Time in the USA at The St. Regis Monarch Beach Resort (www.stregismb.com) in California.

Many in the wine world consider Aubrey McClendon to be one of the greatest American wine collectors, having built an extensive collection highlighted by the best vintages of French Bordeaux and Burgundies, as well as a deep collection of impressive Napa selections. McClendon co-founded Chesapeake Energy Corporation (NYSE:CHK) in 1989, which today is one of the largest producers of U.S. natural gas, where he currently serves as chairman of the board and chief executive officer.

'Fine wine buyers have a once in a lifetime opportunity to buy rare and normally unavailable vintages and formats as well as have a chance to own wine pedigreed to one of the greatest wine collectors in history,' said Greg Roberts, chief executive officer of Spectrum Wine Auctions, and president and chief executive officer of parent company Spectrum Group International. 'Historically, our auction experience in other collectibles such as coins and stamps is that collections pedigreed to great collectors almost always trade for premiums down the road. This is an exceptional buying opportunity.'

Spectrum's pre-auction promotion includes an exclusive interview with McClendon conducted on August 13, 2009, by Mario Sculatti, director of sales and consignments for Spectrum Wine Auctions, which is viewable to registered bidders at www.spectrumwine.com. The interview presents a rare insight into the interests and philosophies of this great collector, and finishes with Mr. McClendon signing an Imperial of 1990 Lafite Rothschild that will be offered during Spectrum Wine Auctions' November 21 auction, with commissions earned from the sale to be donated to a hometown food bank on behalf of Mr. McClendon and Spectrum Wine Auctions.

McClendon's collection features a diverse assortment including many grand format bottlings. 'While I have a lot of 750s, I think the most distinctive part of my collection is the large format bottles,' he says. 'And the reason for that is that when I first saw an Imperial of wine…I said to myself, this is a work of art. This is beautiful. And it's approachable. It's sharable. It's understandable, and at the end of the day it's consumable. A primary collecting goal of mine has been to hunt for top-notch 6-liter bottles of wine over time.'

He continues, 'Like anything in life, if you're going to enjoy something you really ought to try to enjoy, I think, the best of the particular pleasure that you're seeking, and so I would encourage people to go after the best wines. Because at the end of the day, when I have found myself hosting a business dinner, or a family function, or a group of my friends…I want them to experience a first-class wine experience. I want them to remember it for the rest of their lives, just as I remember some of my very first bottles of wine, as well. So I would encourage people to go for the best.'

'It has been both educational and inspirational to have spent time with Aubrey enjoying his passion for wine as well as gaining insight into his business philosophy and his history building Chesapeake into one of the largest independent oil and gas companies in the US,' Roberts concluded.

'Aubrey cuts to the core of what's important in collecting,' adds Spectrum's Director of Sales and Consignments Mario Sculatti. 'He collects the best vintages in depth of cases and large format sizes, approaching his collecting seriously and methodically without being tempted by lesser vintages. It was an honor to sit with him and learn about his genuine passion for wine, and any collector—whether new or seasoned—will benefit from his words.'

Interested parties are invited to call +001.888.982.1982 for additional information and questions.

Empowering Alternative Renewable Energy from Disposable Waste (PINK:WTWO.PK)

Tue, 27 Oct 2009 11:38:24 EST

MiV Investments initiates an independent company profile on W2 Energy, Inc. (PINK:WTWO.PK), which looks to breakthrough within a $23B bio-fuel industry, as a successful alternative renewable energy company amongst worldwide rising oil and energy prices.

Since the dawn of technological advancements, the world has relied on the burning of fossil fuels in order to generate sufficiency and reliability for our energy needs. Most fossil fuels are formed from the remains of long-dead creatures and plants. Buried over the course of hundreds of millions of years, these carbon-based deposits have been converted by heat and pressure over time into such combustible substances as crude oil, coal, natural gas, oil shales and tar sands.

While this has proven to be a cost effective method within the short-run, at current rates, the world uses fossil fuels 100,000 times faster than they can form. The time for alternative renewable energy to emerge from its shackles as a viable and feasible source has long been overdue.

World oil demand is set to rise in 2010, as the price per barrel should see $80. Furthermore, the Minister for Natural Resources, Mines and Energy Stephen Robertson has been advised by the independent Queensland Competition Authority (QCA) of their decision to increase electricity prices by 11.82% for the 2009/10 financial year.

The reason oil prices would likely rise in early 2010, is due to the outlined production cuts by the OPEC crude producers' cartel since last year. OPEC members, which pump 40 per cent of the world's oil, agreed in late 2008 to remove a massive 4.2 million barrels of daily output from the market as it sought to prop up crumbling prices. The cartel's official daily output quota has stood at 24.84 million barrels per day since January but analysts say that compliance with the cuts has slipped over recent months to less than 70 per cent.

Amongst these difficulties, lies the opportunities for W2 Energy, as it has the ability convert the syngas into hydrocarbon liquids (ultra low sulfer diesel, JP8 jet fuel, and/or gasoline). According to David Freund, Vice-President of Business Development, they have been developing this technology for over 9 years and now feel it is the optimal time to let it shine for the rest of the world to witness.

Currently, bio-fuels are capturing about $23 billion of the $1.3 trillion spent each year to power our cars, trucks, airplanes, trains and ships. That's just two percent of the market with an astounding 98 percent upside. One Brazilian company planning to spend $54 billion on this new fuel by 2010, estimating that the bio-fuel market is set to grow by an estimated 1000%.

BioCurex Poised For Positive Future Based On Results (OTC:BOCX)

Mon, 26 Oct 2009 13:15:11 EST

MiV Investments Inc. initiates independent research on BioCurex, Inc. (OTC:BOCX). It is a biotechnology company developing products for cancer diagnosis, imaging, and therapy that target a global oncology market forecast to reach over $50 billion by 2009.

The Company uses a novel, patented technology based on the RECAF™ cancer marker, discovered by Dr. Ricardo Moro-Vidal, BioCurex's chief executive officer (CEO), president, and founder. RECAF™ is a molecule found on malignant� cells but absent from most normal or benign cells. BioCurex believes that the detection of this molecule in tissue or serum samples is the foundation for new cancer diagnostic tests and imaging techniques.

The RECAF™ marker has been found on every cancer tissue that BioCurex has studied to date, including on many common, severe cancers: breast, lung, gastric, prostate, and leukemia. This characteristic indicates that RECAF™ is capable of detecting more than one type of cancer, which is a limitation of many currently available cancer markers.

The Company's RECAF™ technology is reported to have high levels of clinical sensitivity and specificity (measures of cancer marker accuracy), successfully detecting over 90% of cancer in blood and tissue samples. A serum-based assay using RECAF™ recently identified twice as many prostate cancers as the current standard for prostate cancer detection, the prostate specific antigen (PSA) test. A RECAF™-based test also detected 90% to 93% of Stage I and Stage II (early stage) breast cancer samples, without any false positives.

This data supports BioCurex's aim of reducing human suffering through the early detection of cancer or cancer recurrence after treatment. Moreover, due to its ability to differentiate between cancerous and normal cells, RECAF™ technology may facilitate the administration of targeted therapeutics that attack cancer cells but do not damage healthy tissue.

The current state of cancer detection

• According to the World Health Organization the number of people diagnosed with malignant tumors will increase by 50% in a dozen years.

• Survival rates depend mostly on how early the disease is discovered. i.e. The five-year survival rate for breast
cancer ranges from 87% at Stage I to only 13% at Stage IV.) RECAF technology detects malignancy earlier, more accurately, and potentially far more cost-effectively.

• Current cancer detection is still primitive. Needle and surgical biopsies are the most accurate, but far from
perfect. They're also highly intrusive and can cause serious infections. Blood testing, as it now exists, is much less accurate and rife with false positives. (i.e. PSA is a mediocre marker for prostate cancer. It catches only 80% of malignancies — yet produces 65% false positives in patients with benign tumors that usually require no treatment. Yet, all too often, patients are still subjected to costly and debilitating surgical procedures.)

Clearstream and Banque centrale du Luxembourg Collaborate on Collateral Management

Thu, 22 Oct 2009 12:48:56 EST

Luxembourg based banks benefit from further collateral optimisation

Clearstream, the International Central Securities depository within Deutsche Boerse Group, and the Banque centrale du Luxembourg (BCL) are launching a new service allowing all Luxembourg based banks to optimise further their use of collateral to cover any operation with the Eurosystem via BCL.

Clearstream will act as a triparty agent for the banks looking to cover any operation with BCL. Through their securities account with Clearstream, the banks will manage one central, multi purpose collateral pool allowing them to not only cover their monterary policy operations but also to perform other operations necessitating collateral among which intraday credit operations in TARGET2, the real time gross settlement system for the euro.

Luxembourg based banks will benefit from the flexibility of Clearstream's fully automated CmaX (collateral management eXchange) system. This includes automatic allocation of collateral, eligibility checks, substitutions of collateral, mark to market valuation, margin calls, re-use of collateral and reporting facilities.

Operationally, Banque Centrale de Luxembourg will communicate electronically to Clearstream the amount to be collateralized and Clearstream will ensure that eligible assets are pledged as collateral. Assets eligible at the European Central Bank and for which Clearstream already has 'assessed links' (1) represent some 40,000 securities, 90% of the total number of eligible assets.

The financial crisis and the subsequent freeze on money markets have shed light on the importance of accessing central banks liquidity as well as on the crucial role of securities financing mechanisms and infrastructures which provide much of the liquidity to the world's capital market. Since the beginning of the financial crisis, collateral managed by the Eurosystem has gone up from € 800 billion to € 1500 billion.

Clearstream pioneered the development of collateral management services, including triparty repo, in Europe by launching the world's first such multi-currency service back in 1993. It now offers a wide range of collateral management services together with a suite of securities lending products under the name of Global Securities Financing (GSF) services. In the past weeks, GSF services have broken the €500 billion mark for monthly average outstandings (from € 400 billion a year ago), illustrating the growing importance of secured financing and the continued flight of collateral towards central liquidity pools at a time of market uncertainty.

(1) Background on assessed links. assessed links are contractual and technical arrangements for the transfer of securities involving between securities settlement systems which may be used in the collateralisation of the credit operations of the Eurosystem after an assessment has been carried out against the Eurosystem's standards to ensure that the conditions set by the Governing Council have been met.

A New Spotlight on Diverse Media Group (PINK:DVME.PK)

Thu, 22 Oct 2009 11:02:34 EST

MiV Investments profiles Diverse Media Group (PINK:DVME.PK) which has recently made a 50% acquisition of Celebrities in Action, Inc. which has a joint venture with Stan Lee, and has agreed to sign up for the responsibilities in regards to finding high profile celebrities and athletes for their movie roles. – It is important to note that Lee's former company, Marvel Comics, was acquired by Disney for over $4 billion dollars – .

The current economic situation may be a horror for most businesses, but the movie industry is expecting a happy ending. Ticket sales this year are up 17.5 percent to $1.7 billion, and attendance has risen nearly 16 percent, according to Media by Numbers, a box-office tracking company. If attendance continues to increase at the same pace it has for the past six weeks, it would amount to the biggest box-office surge in at least two decades.

'People seem to be turning to the movies to escape from the daily worries of their professional lives,' said Chad Browning, Marketing Manager for Regal Entertainment. 'In economic uncertainty, movies are still a relatively inexpensive form of entertainment when you compare it to sporting events, concerts or going out to eat.'

The company also represents actors and directors on leading prime time television shows including Lost, 24, House, Bones, Wildfire, Prison Break, Deadwood, NCIS, Criminal Minds, and previously Seventh Heaven, Charmed, One Tree Hill, and Las Vegas. Diverse Media Group is also one of the few small / micro cap companies which is fully OTC pinksheets compliant.

Diverse Media Group, Inc. is the parent company that emerged as an outgrowth of Diverse Talent Group,Inc. (DTG).

Tue, 20 Oct 2009 11:10:19 EST

Cancer has quickly become one of the deadliest diseases, causing well over 13% of all human deaths. Cancer rates could further increase by 50% to 15 million new cases in the year 2020, according to the World Cancer Report, the most comprehensive global examination of the disease to date. Due to this emerging need for cancer detection medical devices, new and innovative technologies are bound to step foot within the coming years, in what could potentially be one of the biggest markets of our era. Xtend Medical (PINK:XMDC) is set to partner up with BioHarp Korea, a division of Uni Bio-Tech, Inc, a Seoul, Korea based developer and manufacturer of medical imaging devices. Under the terms of the merger, BioHarp Korea will transfer all patents, software, assets, and proprietary information relating to the BioHarp Nano Sensor imaging device. Upon completion of the merger, the combined company will apply for a name change from XTend Medical to BioHarp Uni, US, and will effectuate a new trading symbol and cusip number. The merger is expected to be completed 30 to 60 days post the October 1st, 2009 press release. BioHarp is a cutting-edge medical imaging device that utilizes a non-invasive approach to detect inflammation in the human body on a cellular level. It is an hand-held, lightweight, portable, and affordable device which has tested for 100% no-false positives, and 95.9% cancer positive . With the U.S. National Science Foundation predicting that the market for nanotechnology, or products containing nanotechnology, will reach $1 trillion in 10 to 15 years — XTend, and other medical nanotechnology devices should begin to receive a lot more praise, including the likes of NASA, which has already developed a nanotechnology-based biosensor which helps detect biohazards. 'If we realize our sales and marketing goals and hit our projected revenues based on the current inquiries we've received, the company's market cap will be substantial,' stated Mr. Paul D. Lisenby, CEO of XTend Medical.

Holiday Season May Bring Renewed Interest in BizAuctions (OTC:BZCN.OB)

Fri, 16 Oct 2009 09:41:31 EST

As the holiday season fast approaches during one of the most hard hit economic times in recent memory, certain discount companies look to profit and gain recognition, differentiating themselves from the pack.

One of these such companies is BizAuctions Inc. (OTC:BZCN.OB), which is quickly gaining momentum in a $60B excess inventory liquidation market. The concept is simple, they offer eBay liquidation services for companies who have excess inventory, returns, and overstock items. Given that eBay is one of those companies which is recession proof, investors should feel a little more confident should they choose to place their eggs in this basket. At first glance, this may seem like a simple concept, however it made them a hefty revenue of $1,340,904 during six months ended June/30/2009, and that's not too bad for a high growth company worth an estimated $640M in market cap.

Despite the struggling economy, BizAuctions has continued to decrease operating and net losses, all the while maintaining a revived sense of optimism after eBay (NASDAQ:EBAY) hit their highest level in 10-months and exceeded Wall Street's forecast.

BizAuctions also runs a retail clothing store named 'Lucky 7's' which opened at the Chula Vista Center, on May/29/09 next to Macy's in Chula Vista, CA. It is also important to remember that during the last holiday season in December of 2008, the company's shares reached a one year high of 0.11 price per share.

About BizAuctions Inc.

Bisections Inc. is a provider of commercial eBay liquidation services for excess inventory, overstock items, and returns for retailers, manufacturers, and distributors. The Company sells from home goods, brand name clothes and electronics. The Company lists the merchandise through software which is integrated and compliant with eBay. Once an auction ends, payment is collected via PayPal or credit card. The Company is providing liquidation services to retailers in California, Arizona, and Colorado, and is in the process of expanding into other states.

AVAX Currently Pending Clinical Trials News for its Pipeline (OTC:AVXT.PK)

Wed, 14 Oct 2009 11:31:37 EST

AVAX Technologies, Inc. has gone through a vast number of ups and downs throughout 2006 to 2007. At this time StocksHaven Investments profiles the company and takes look at what investors may expect within the near future.

AVAX had a number of expectations to meet in order to sustain ongoing business operations: equity financing, FDA registration for phase II and phase III clinical trials, and collaborations and expactions.The successful completion of these goals has paved the way for a fresh and optimistic 2008 and 2009 for AVAX.

Having raised $10M in equity financing, and $1.2M in a collaboration of CTCA on the OVARIAN trials (Ovax), dilution should be out of the question for the remainder of 2010. Despite all of this, there remains one main reason which makes AVAX a solid company: their pipeline which targets some of the fastest growing markets within the biotech medical industry.

MVax is aiming towards a $775M Melanoma treatment market by 2010, while Ovax looks to enter a potential Ovarian cancer drug market of $1.6B by 2016. Moreover, AVAX' currently trades at a highly undervalued estimated market cap of 27.10M when compared to a similar cancer treatment company in Cell Therapeutics (NASDAQ:CTIC), which is sitting at roughly 627.11M market cap without any drugs currently being approved by the FDA. 2010 should prove to be an eventful year for this up and coming rising small cap biotech.

MVax® is AVAX's lead product candidate and it is currently in an International Phase III Registration trial with centers in the U.S., Europe and Israel. To date over 600 patients have been treated with the AC Vaccine Technology.

About AVAX Technologies, Inc.

AVAX Technologies, Inc. is an internationally integrated biotechnology company focused on developing and commercializing its AC Vaccine® technology for the treatment of cancer. The AC Vaccine Technology is an immunotherapeutic treatment that educates the patient's immune system to recognize cancer cells as foreign through the process of haptenization. Haptenization is a re-education of the immune system through a chemical modification of antigens on the cancer cell which allows for the development of an immune response to cancer cells that were previously ignored by the immune system. To produce AVAX's AC Vaccine cancer cells are obtained from tumors excised during routine surgery. These cells are then treated with the hapten dinitrophenyl (DNP). Injection of the DNP-modified vaccine induces an immune response against native cancer cells in the patient's body, and, under the best of circumstances, kills them or controls their growth.

AVAX is headquartered in Philadelphia, PA with operations in Lyon, France where it has established a cGMP manufacturing facility that is currently producing the vaccines for the ongoing Phase III Registration trial of MVax®, the AC Vaccine for Melanoma.
