(OTCMKTS:<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=UMAX\">UMAX<\/a>). The stock closed on Monday at $2.19, losing 24% of its value on dollar volumes above $400K. The stock was nearing $3 when the selling happened. <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"float: right;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.hotstocked.com\/articles-img\/small\/UMAX0917.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"UMAX0917.gif\" title=\"UMAX0917.gif\" width=\"400\" height=\"231\" \/> <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=UMAX\">UMAX<\/a> waves a lot of red flags, the first one being the uncertainty of the address- an office building in Los Angeles, California, and another street address in Poland, on another one of the company&#8217;s profiles. The US-based office is not explicitly seen in pictures, and it seems located in an urban area, surrounded by small shops and hair and nail salons. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=UMAX\">UMAX<\/a> is supposed to offer various health supplements, but lists itself as a development stage company, and there are no news of products ready to be marketed. <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"float: right;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.hotstocked.com\/articles-img\/small\/VPCO0917.png\" border=\"0\" alt=\"VPCO0917.png\" title=\"VPCO0917.png\" width=\"350\" height=\"156\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=UMAX\">UMAX<\/a> shot up from $1.50 since March, and generally increased its activity in 2013, posting regular quarterly filings and yearly results. Still, we did not manage to intercept a promotion for this ticker, though it may have benefited from a general bull market.<\/p>\n<p>But the fallout is indeed shocking, so at $2 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=UMAX\">UMAX<\/a> is still not receiving any stability guarantees. We will  keep tracking this ticker for further developments, but so far it seems <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=UMAX\">UMAX<\/a> was lifted by the bull market in 2013. As for the underlying supplements business, this is how the company lines up:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Zero cash and cash-like assets<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Zero assets<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>$20,000 current\/total liabilities<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Zero revenues<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"float: right;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.hotstocked.com\/articles-img\/small\/VPIG0917.png\" border=\"0\" alt=\"VPIG0917.png\" title=\"VPIG0917.png\" width=\"350\" height=\"156\" \/><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>$34,000 net loss<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>So <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=UMAX\">UMAX<\/a> is brand-new, so far with very limited activity- and a phenomenal market cap of more than $213 million, on 97,6 million shares outstanding. Indeed, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=UMAX\">UMAX<\/a> seems like a joke, when we compare the 20K borrowed to start selling food supplements to the giant success on the stock markets.<\/p>\n<p>At first sight, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=UMAX\">UMAX<\/a> looks like one of those solid, but little-known penny stock companies, but it seems like the perfect company for a disproportionate price inflation.<\/p>\n<p>As for more solid companies that have had a good run in 2013, Vapor, Corp. (OTCMKTS:<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=VPCO\">VPCO<\/a>) seems like a good enough selection, reaching $1.30 in the summer, but sliding back to hover around the dollar levels.<\/p>\n<p>But Virtual Piggy, Inc. (OTCBB:<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=VPIG\">VPIG<\/a>) did not have such luck, sliding from $3.20 to start moving below the $2 levels, though not as precipitously.<\/p>\n<p>The sharp movement around <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=UMAX\">UMAX<\/a> may create more interest in the next few days, but avoid investing unaffordable sums for a company that tries to begin a business with a small sum, while making fortunes on the OTC markets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A shakeout, a buying opportunity- those are some of the rationalizations for the drop of Umax Group Corp.
