Omnicity Corp. (OMCY.OB) Riding the Broadband Wave

QualityStocks (November 17th, 2009) Writes:

Omnicity Corp., known for bringing wireless broadband services to rural America, is on top of one of the biggest waves in telecommunications, the rapid expansion of broadband services outside of the traditional urban and suburban base areas.

It goes without saying that the communications industry is the nervous system of today’s economy, generating global annual revenues of nearly $2 trillion. North America remains the largest telecommunications market, with revenues of over $½ trillion. Much of this, of course, is due to the continued growth of the Internet. Worldwide, there are now nearly 1½ billion Internet users. Data-intensive Internet applications such as Voice-over-Internet Protocol (VoIP) and video are key drivers in the telecommunication industry’s growth, providing increased demand for high-speed broadband capabilities.

The number of broadband connections is increasing rapidly as vendors and consumers require the ability to share large files, download

Shaw Gets Mountain Cablevision – Analyst Blog

Zacks Market Commentaries (July 20th, 2009) Writes:
Recently, Shaw Communications (SJR) announced that it has entered into a strategic agreement to acquire Mountain Cablevision Limited, based in Hamilton, Ontario and owned by the Boris Family.

ComScore Claims to have a Larger Panel

Faisal Laljee (July 15th, 2009) Writes:
ComScore (SCOR) and Nielsen are both market research and audience measurement businesses. They have a "panel" of independent internet users whose activities they monitor (with permission of course) and based on the internet usage of this panel, they publish broader internet measures like unique visitors, visits, page views, time spent etc. for most of the highly trafficked web sites on the div class="feedflare" a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/StocksAdvice?a=Q68mgwjbzLE:ct-nrADubtw:XhI0_UKdTUU"img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/StocksAdvice?i=Q68mgwjbzLE:ct-nrADubtw:XhI0_UKdTUU" border="0"/img/a a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/StocksAdvice?a=Q68mgwjbzLE:ct-nrADubtw:yIl2AUoC8zA"img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/StocksAdvice?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"/img/a a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/StocksAdvice?a=Q68mgwjbzLE:ct-nrADubtw:7Q72WNTAKBA"img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/StocksAdvice?d=7Q72WNTAKBA" border="0"/img/a a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/StocksAdvice?a=Q68mgwjbzLE:ct-nrADubtw:V_sGLiPBpWU"img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/StocksAdvice?i=Q68mgwjbzLE:ct-nrADubtw:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"/img/a a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/StocksAdvice?a=Q68mgwjbzLE:ct-nrADubtw:qj6IDK7rITs"img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/StocksAdvice?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"/img/a a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/StocksAdvice?a=Q68mgwjbzLE:ct-nrADubtw:gIN9vFwOqvQ"img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/StocksAdvice?i=Q68mgwjbzLE:ct-nrADubtw:gIN9vFwOqvQ" border="0"/img/a a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/StocksAdvice?a=Q68mgwjbzLE:ct-nrADubtw:dnMXMwOfBR0"img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/StocksAdvice?d=dnMXMwOfBR0" border="0"/img/a /divimg src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/StocksAdvice/~4/Q68mgwjbzLE" height="1" width="1"/

Egyptian telecoms a defensive growth play as markets react to row-related rumors

Jason G. Wulterkens (May 19th, 2009) Writes:

Egypt’s benchmark CASE 30 stock index, the EGX 30, gained 2.2% yesterday, primarily on the strength of its telecoms and specifically rumors that a row  between Mobinil shareholders will soon be resolved.  Orascom Telecom (OT) and France Telecom have been engaged in battle over their joint holding in Mobinil–one of three mobile operators in the most populous Arab country–since the two sides went to court in 2007.  OT had previously stated that it considers the deal ordered by an international arbitration court in March to sell its 28.75% stake in Mobinil to France Telecom “null and void” after the French company failed to meet a deadline to transfer certain funds in time.

The telecom sector is of particular interest to investors looking to add Egyptian exposure.  Egypt’s Minister of Investment declared this week that the  sector grew by 14% Y-OY in the

Amazon.com To Outperform Through ‘09

Bullish Bankers (April 22nd, 2009) Writes:

As the economy continues to suffer from lower consumer confidence and weaker consumer spending, many believe that the retail sector has taken a beating from these weaknesses. One segment related to retail is eCommerce, an online version of retail that can be seen with companies such as Amazon.com Inc. [AMZN: 78.74, 0.00 (0.00%)], eBay Inc. [EBAY: 14.29, 0.00 (0.00%)], and Barnes and Noble, Inc. [BKS: 23.51, 0.00 (0.00%)]. What many economists and consumers have overlooked is the continued out performance of this segment, especially by the segment leader, Amazon. As of April 13, 2009, Amazon has been up 45.22% year-to-date. Some may say that Amazon is overpriced, but with the company being best of the breed, eCommerce flourishing, and Amazon’s growth opportunities through its product innovations, I will prove why Amazon will continue to strive through 2009.

Internet Censorship Intensifies with China Attempts

Contrarian Profits (January 6th, 2009) Writes:

With the onset of 2009, Beijing is cracking down on web portals and search engines that publish material deemed to be too vulgar or subversive for the nation’s 300 million-plus Internet users. Chinese authorities have reportedly implemented new software that lets them more easily track and counter threats, and have issued stern warnings to industry leaders such as Baidu.com Inc. (ADR: BIDU) and Google Inc. (GOOG).

The government earlier this week cited 19 Web sites - including Baidu, Google, Sohu, Sina, and Tianya - as purveyors of vulgar content that is morally or politically destructive.

Some results produced by search engines had “large amounts of pornographic links [and] after notification from the complaint center, the site did not take effective countermeasures,” the State Council Information Office said in a statement.

“Some Web sites have exploited loopholes in laws and regulations,” said Cai Minzhao, deputy chief of the Information
