\"GNLK_chart.png\"Friday was a good day for GeneLink, Inc. (OTCMKTS:GNLK<\/a>) shareholders. The stock managed to soar over 500% up by the end of the session, driven by pumps. Sadly, intra-day movement was a trap for people trying to buy on the pump. <\/p>\n

Pumper Stock Psycho, also sending out his alerts under the Darth Trader alias, sent a long-winded pump email to his fortunate subscribers two minutes before the open on Friday, touting the perceived merits of GNLK<\/a>. The only good thing that can possibly be said about the alert was that the Stock Psycho was not paid for this one. This doesn’t mean that the pump was particularly successful as this was a heavily front-loaded deal.<\/p>\n

All traders who had not previously bought cheap GNLK<\/a> shares and decided to ride the pump were looking at a gap up of 140% immediately at the open and had to chase the climbing price. The stock ran up almost 200% further up from the open before starting its rapid descent that left all new entrants to the stock sitting on losses ranging from 50% to 75% by the end of the session.<\/p>\n

The pump happened on no recent news from GNLK<\/a>, touting an event that took place in February and had no positive effect on the price back then. Another part of the pump’s tout was the revenue of the company. Here is a brief look at GNLK<\/a>‘s financials as per their most recent report, a 10-K for 2012:<\/p>\n
