Solar Stock XsunX, Inc. (OTCQB: XSNX) Update: 750 kW in Proposals Going Out - More Projects in Review

New York, NY, Point Roberts, WA - September 16, 2013 (Investorideas.com renewable energy newswire) Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in investing ideas in leading sectors including renewable energy stocks, issues a corporate and industry update for solar stock, XsunX, Inc. (OTCQB: XSNX), entitled 750 kW in Proposals Going Out - More Projects in Review.

Tom M. Djokovich, CEO of XsunX, Inc. (OTCQB: XSNX) said in the corporate/ industry update:”
At the start of the month, we outlined how September's marketing and sales efforts would focus on supporting and meeting with prospective customers for our CIGS manufacturing technology, and that we would be responding to solar power system development quote requests for commercial and utility scale projects.”
Continued...
So far, September has been busy in a very good way. Progress filling our solar power system development sales pipeline is picking up steam very nicely with three projects totaling nearly 750 kW (about ¾ of a megawatt) for commercial and industrial projects now in the proposal stage - exciting stuff.
There are more projects pending that we have been asked to bid on as they become ready for the engineering, systems procurement, and the construction phase. Additionally, in an effort to try to develop as much sales opportunity as possible, we are not just waiting on projects to come our way, but have also begun reaching out to land owners we know to offer free solar development feasibility assessments of properties they hold.
On the CIGS manufacturing equipment side of operations, we have an on-site meeting with an African based client scheduled for this week, and last Thursday we delivered to a Caribbean based client an extensive package of specifications and financial benefit outlines they requested to allow them to better qualify for government support in their region.
Overall, our expansion into solar project construction and development has started with strong momentum and we are excited about the opportunity to grow sales and operations through these new efforts. With USA solar installation up over 30% in the first quarter and increasing another 15% in the second quarter, our focus is to use the increase in awareness of solar's affordability to load the sales pipeline with commercial, industrial, and utility scale projects.

Mobile Security and Biometrics Sector Snapshot: AAPL, NXTD

New York, NY - September 16, 2013 (www.investorideas.com newswire) Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in investor research in leading sectors, issues commentary on the mobile security sector . Frost & Sullivan’s Global Program Director, ICT in Financial Services, Jean-Noel Georges and Alan Goode, Managing Director from Goode Intelligence share insight into the rapidly changing sector and comment on Apple’s (AAPL) recent implementation of fingerprint biometrics.

Additionally the CEO of an industry newcomer NXT-ID, Inc. ( OTCQB: NXTD), shares his perspective on the future of biometrics for identification and verification.
Last year Goode Intelligence predicted that mobile biometric security would move from "an interesting concept” to a "must-have” feature for all smart mobile devices (SMDs) His predictions have come to fruition.
Alan Goode, Managing Director of GoodeIntelligence.com recently shared his insight with Investorideas.com telling us, "I believe that the main driver for adoption of biometrics into consumer electronic devices is the mass adoption of smart mobile devices and the challenges this poses for strong authentication and identity verification - in other words how do we securely prove identity on a mobile device without affecting the user experience. Passcodes and One-Time-Passwords are not the most convenient way to prove identity on a mobile device, especially when we are on the move. As more and more of our daily lives are being managed by these devices, having to authenticate using technology that was designed for a personal computer and a keyboard is becoming undesirable. "
"What Apple ( AAPL ) has done with Touch ID is to improve the usability of identity verification on mobile devices - to make it more convenient. "
He also sees biometrics playing a key role in other technology, saying "There is a move to make authentication and identity verification on mobile devices more convenient and biometrics can provide a solution to this. This includes many biometric modalities including fingerprint, voice, facial and eye verification technologies. We predict that we shall see a marked increase in consumer technology supporting biometric authentication. Not just mobile phones, but smart TVs, games consoles, cars and wearable technology. Take a look at the latest Xbox console, Xbox one - it supports voice and facial recognition. Multi-factor biometric authentication can support many endpoints and ensure that we have a continuous experience when we switch between endpoints (NOTE: Take a look at this video from Nuance for a glimpse into what can happen with cross-platform voice recognition.” (http://venturebeat.com/2013/09/08/how-nuance-tapped-the-cloud-to-bring-voice-recognition-to-mobile/).
Mr. Gino M. Pereira, Chief Executive Officer of NXT-ID, Inc. ( OTCQB: NXTD said "Over the past couple of years it has become apparent that simple password protection is not sufficient in today's increasingly sophisticated hacking world. Now giants such as Apple ( AAPL ) and Google ( GOOG) are publically saying so. The next few years will see increasing usage of all different forms of biometrics for identification and verification. One day somewhere in the future we will seamlessly have access to our homes, cars, computers and other devices simply by being in proximity to them and being recognized biometrically. It will be simple, seemless and more secure "
NXT-ID is launching an advanced MobileBio™ technology that secures consumers' platforms via innovative authentication and encryption.
The first product the company is launching later this year is the Wocket™, a unique technology with a very different approach to payment security. Instead of replacing the wallet, they are aiming to improve upon it. The Wocket™ reduces the number of cards in your wallet while supports virtually every payment method currently available at Point-of-Sale (POS) at retailers around the world including magnetic stripe, EMV/NFC and barcode…all within a secure vault within a wallet.
Analyst Jean-Noel George from Frost & Sullivan recently said, "Protecting the mobile device itself is a first step, necessary to secure mobile payments. Although a personal identification number (PIN) can do the job, in 2011 more than 60 percent of smartphone users were not using a PIN to protect their mobile access. "
"The time is now right for biometric technology to emerge as a secure solution for mobile applications that require high levels of security, particularly payment," said Mr. Georges. "From a pure-payment security point of view, biometrics has already delivered significant advantages."
Investorideas.com asked him how long he thinks it will take for NFC or touchless payments to be in widespread use for payments in the US and what percentage of credit card holders in the US currently use NFC to make payments and how does he see that number changing over the next 5 years ?
He noted. " For the payment industry, the US market moved directly from magnetic stripe payment card to contactless payment cards. The infrastructure (POS, ATM) are being changed to accept contactless payment cards in the US. Major industry players (financial institutions, MNOs, OEM handset vendors,...) are deeply involved in the NFC technology. We can also add ISIS as a perfect driver for a US massive roll out. But the reality is different, and having NFC capabilities on your smartphone, does not automatically generate end user massive adoption and usages. I do not see NFC in the US as an important means of payment before 2015. "
"If you are back to the means of payment industry, it took 2 decades in Europe to move from cash/coins to EMV card payment. In the US, it will take time for the end user to move from the well known bank card to a NFC mobile payment. "
In discussing how the wallet war shifting to an MPOS war he said, " Many players already entered to the wallet war (software vendors, banks, financial institutions, ...) without a real leader. I can see the same business orientation coming to the mPOS. Many players are entering to this market with a plethora of solutions, but at the moment none took the lead. For SMB and SME, there is a real value added to use mPOS instead of traditional POS hardware. They just need to add a small add-on (most of the time for free) and they will be charged a little more than traditional fees but only based on their sales. Some business models have fixed fees based on your sales amount. So you have to pay even when you did not sale anything, which I s not comfortable for the retailer. The platform to be used is your own device (smartphone and/or tablet).
Commenting on Apple's ( AAPL ) recent acquisition of Authen Tec fingerprint biometric technology Jean-Noel said, " As I said, fingerprint recognition made lot of progress in terms of quality, speed and of price (as finger print readers were not doing perfect recognition. New ones are doing several pictures of your finger to obtain a better result). Apple just confirmed the rumors were referring to. The quality level of fingerprint technology reached a sufficient level at that time. So I don't think that a multimodal solution for basic application will be a major trend in a short time. I heard about Validity Sensors Inc doing the same."
In terms of industry growth he told us . " We are forecasting for Europe a €151 billion in 2017, and €502 billion in 2017 globally. Once again, mobile payment included for us, SMS, USSD, online payment, NFC, P2P and cloud based payment. I can see that Identity Access Management (IAM) is one of the biggest growth opportunities for the security mobile industry. We are forecasting 1.14 billions smartphone devices in 2017 with associated revenue of $371 billion. "
Noting key trends for investors following the mobile payment and mobile security space he commented, " IAM will be key for mobile security. I saw that to overpass the lack of adoption and the complex ecosystem, many players are using cloud based credential for payment. Cloud solutions for payment are definitively a trend to follow. You have cost efficiency, easy to use and a sufficient security level. Cloud will be strategic in the future. Apple already mentioned that biometric data will not be stored on the cloud....but for how long?"

Medical Technology Breaking News: Aethlon Medical (OTCQB: AEMD) Announces Dr. Douglas Taylor as Chief Scientific Officer of Exosome Sciences, Inc.

SAN DIEGO - September 13, 2013 (Investorideas.com newswire) Aethlon Medical, Inc. (OTCBB:AEMD), announced today that Dr. Douglas Taylor has accepted the position of Chief Scientific Officer at Exosome Sciences, Inc. (ESI), a wholly owned diagnostic subsidiary of Aethlon Medical. Dr. Taylor is credited with the discovery of tumor-secreted exosomes and is a leading published author on the topic. "We are truly honored that Dr. Taylor has agreed to lead our research endeavors at Exosome Sciences. His pioneering research has been instrumental in establishing an industry for exosome-based diagnostics and therapeutics," stated Aethlon Chairman and CEO, Jim Joyce. The news was first reported through a presentation given by Mr. Joyce at the Exosomes & Circulating Biomarkers 2013 Summit. Mr. Joyce's presentation occurred after the close of market hours on September 12th.

Aethlon Medical develops therapeutic devices to address unmet medical needs in cancer, infectious disease, and other life-threatening conditions. The Company is preparing to launch the first U.S. studies of the Aethlon Hemopurifier® as a therapy to address hepatitis c virus (HCV) based on the recent approval of an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The Hemopurifier® is a first-in-class device that targets the rapid elimination of viruses and cancer glycopathogens, including disease-promoting exosomes from circulation.
Exosome Sciences was established by Aethlon to pursue exosome-based strategies to diagnose and monitor the progression of cancer, infectious disease and other life-threatening conditions. ESI's lead product, an Enzyme Linked Lectin Specific Assay (ELLSA) has been validated to identify the presence of exosomes underlying the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), tuberculosis (TB), and various forms of cancer, including ovarian, melanoma, breast, lymphoma, and colorectal.
Dr. Taylor stated, "I am extremely excited about joining Exosome Sciences as their Chief Scientific Officer. I have been pioneering the field of exosome biology for more than 35 years and believe that exosomes represent the ideal disease marker due to their stability in the peripheral circulation and ability to be multiplexed. Exosome-based diagnostics will not only be used in identification and management of a variety of cancers, but also in other pathologies such as viral infections, pregnancy complications, birth defects, cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. No other platform exhibits their potential for patient stratification and real-time monitoring of therapeutic responses. I have a long history of collaboration with scientists at Aethlon Medical and this opportunity will expand that interaction to bring ELLSA based assays to the clinic."
The release of exosomes by viable cells has been demonstrated in multiple cell types and systems. These nano-sized vesicles are detectable in biologic fluids, including blood, urine, ascites, and pleural fluids. They are essential mediators of normal homeostasis, based on their role in intercellular communication via surface interactions and transfer of macromolecules between cells. Cell injury or transformation is associated with alterations in the cell's exosome production and composition of these exosomes. This aberrant exosome composition can be utilized as surrogate markers of specific disease pathologies. The ESI mission is to advance an exosome-based biomarker platform to diagnose a broad-spectrum of disease conditions as well as monitor disease progression/regression in response to therapy as a means to improve patient management and outcomes. In the oncology field, ESI products will also be positioned to serve as companion diagnostics that determine when to initiate Hemopurifier® therapy or provide real-time monitoring of tumor responses to Hemopurifier® therapy.
About Dr. Taylor
Dr. Taylor discovered and pioneered the field of exosome biology and their role in intercellular communication and immune regulation. He has been in the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Women's Health at the University of Louisville School of Medicine since 1992. Dr. Taylor published the initial article describing circulating tumor exosomes/microvesicles in 1979 (Anal. Biochem. 98:53-59, 1979). The research in his laboratory has primarily focused on the release and consequences of exosomes from gynecologic cancer and lung tumors. Over the past 30+ years, Dr Taylor has pioneered the isolation and characterization of circulating tumor-derived exosomes. His work has focused on characterization of circulating exosomes released by tumor cells for their role in immune regulation and induction of a pro-inflammatory tumor microenvironment. His work has demonstrated that the presence of specific circulating exosomal components have potential use as biomarkers for cancer patients.

Apple's (AAPL) Adoption of Biometric Fingerprint Technology Will Play a Key Role in Changing Future of Mobile Security

New York, NY - September 12, 2013 (www.investorideas.com newswire) Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in investing ideas in leading sectors including biometric and mobile security stocks issues a snapshot on key developments in the sector. Apple's (NASDAQ:AAPL) new iPhone 5s launch has everyone talking about biometrics and mobile security.

Apple reported "iPhone 5s introduces Touch ID, an innovative way to simply and securely unlock your iPhone with just the touch of a finger. Built into the home button, Touch ID uses a laser cut sapphire crystal, together with the capacitive touch sensor, to take a high-resolution image of your fingerprint and intelligently analyze it to provide accurate readings from any angle. Setting up Touch ID to recognize your fingerprint is easy, and every time you use it, it gets better. The Touch ID sensor recognizes the touch of a finger so the sensor is only activated when needed, preserving battery life. All fingerprint information is encrypted and stored securely in the Secure Enclave inside the A7 chip on the iPhone 5s; it’s never stored on Apple servers or backed up to iCloud®. Touch ID can also be used as a secure way to approve purchases from the iTunes Store®, App Store or iBooks Store."
Gartner Research projects worldwide mobile payment transactions will exceed $235 billion in 2013, reaching $721 billion in annual transactions with more than 450 million users by 2017. That creates a big opportunity for companies in the mobile security space.
Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), always known as first to market and an innovator, apparently plans to integrate the fingerprint scanners into the iPhone 6 to address consumer concerns over mobile payment security.
How significant is the biometrics acquisition for Apple? Wells Fargo analyst raised its forecast for Apple based on the biometrics integration.
"We believe investors may be under- appreciating Apple's (NASDAQ:AAPL) Authentec acquisition--specifically the ability to perform secure device-side authentication, which could help open up the mCommerce market and further penetrate the enterprise market," said Wells Fargo analyst Maynard Um.
Investorideas.com Newswire NXT-ID, Inc. (OTCQB: NXTD), a new player on the scene in payment security, is launching the Wocket this fall; a unique technology takes a very different approach: Instead of replacing the wallet, they are improving it! The Wocket™ reduces the number of cards in a consumer's wallet while supporting virtually every payment method currently available at Point-of-Sale (POS) at retailers around the world including magnetic stripe, EMV/NFC and barcode…all within a secure vault within a wallet. The company then plans to roll out a full suite of MobileBio™ technologies for mobile applications including its 3D Facial recognition technology.
NXT-ID, Inc.'s MobileBio™ facematch™ is a modular facial recognition platform technology that can be applied to a variety of platforms including smartphones, tablets, laptops and desktop computers. Depending on the number of cameras available and level of security desired, facematch™ will use 2D, pseudo 3D or 3D facial recognition algorithms to allow the user access to their device, data, or door. facematch™ supports both 3D and 2D camera devices, supporting various applications such as adding access control to a door or prison to adding superior authentication and/or encryption to a mobile device.
Samsung (KSE:oo5930) is also rumored to be integrating biometrics fingerprint technology in their smartphones and related devices. Samsung previously launched its biometric Face Unlock feature for Galaxy but the technology was easily fooled by photos from its users.
Precise Biometrics AB (PREC) recently had a big run following news of its deal with Fingerprint Cards. Precise Biometrics AB and Fingerprint Cards AB (FPC) announced they have entered into an agreement where FPC will license Precise Biometrics' fingerprint algorithm to further enhance the performance of FPC world leading capacitive sensors. FPC will bundle the algorithm into existing sensor products, primarily targeting mobile phones and tablets. The bundle will further enhance the performance of FPC sensors in terms of accuracy and speed which are important criteria especially in the fast growing mobile and tablet markets.
If Apple integrates biometrics successfully, the world as always, will follow and the race will be on for the search for the best and most secure biometrics technology for mobile users.

It also became clear that the launch of ESI might allow us to leverage recent valuations that have been awarded to molecular diagnostic organizations with novel technology strategies."
Aethlon disclosed that ESI's research facility is being established within a CLIA certified laboratory located in Langhorne, Pennsylvania. The facility is adjacent to the Philadelphia/New Jersey I-95 corridor, which is the home for numerous U.S. biopharmaceutical organizations, including Merck and Johnson & Johnson. The introduction of key ESI researchers who will lead the development and commercialization of next-generation diagnostics will occur through follow-on disclosures.
At present, Aethlon is preparing to launch the first U.S. studies of the Hemopurifier® as a therapy to address hepatitis c virus (HCV) based on the recent approval of an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The Hemopurifier is a first-in-class device that targets the rapid elimination of infectious disease and cancer glycopathogens, including exosomes from circulation. Exosomes enhance disease progression of viral infections and in cancer trigger apoptosis of immune cells and have been reported to facilitate tumor growth, metastasis, and the development of drug resistance.
Aethlon will contribute diagnostic related technology to ESI, including the Enzyme Linked Lectin Specific Assay (ELLSA), which has been validated to identify the presence of exosomes underlying the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), tuberculosis (TB), and various forms of cancer, including ovarian, melanoma, breast, lymphoma, and colorectal. ELLSA was originally created by Aethlon researchers as a tool to help validate the ability of the Hemopurifier® to capture tumor-secreted exosomes. At the time, effective tools to isolate and quantify exosomes did not exist as few labs conducted exosome research. Since then, an increased understanding of the role of exosomes underlying a wide-range of disease conditions has created a demand for related diagnostic products. As part of the relationship, ESI has agreed to assign any therapeutic related discoveries back to Aethlon Medical. Beyond the potential for future technology advances by ESI researchers, ESI may also in-license related diagnostic IP from collaborative research partners.
The release of exosomes by viable cells has been demonstrated in multiple cell types and systems. These nano-sized vesicles are detectable in biologic fluids, including blood, urine, ascites, and pleural fluids. They are essential mediators of normal homeostasis, based on their role in intercellular communication via surface interactions and transfer of macromolecules between cells. Cell injury or transformation is associated with alterations in the cell's exosome production and composition of these exosomes. This aberrant exosome composition can be utilized as surrogate markers of specific disease pathologies. The ESI mission is to advance an exosome-based biomarker platform to diagnose a broad-spectrum of disease conditions as well as monitor disease progression/regression in response to therapy as a means to improve patient management and outcomes. In the oncology field, ESI products will also be positioned to serve as companion diagnostics that determine when to initiate Hemopurifier® therapy or provide real-time monitoring of tumor responses to Hemopurifier® therapy.

The Growing Portable Power Generation Market: From Diesel to Natural Gas, Fuel Cells to Solar, the Global Demand is on the Rise

New York, NY - September 11, 2013 (Investorideas.com renewable energy stocks newswire) Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in sector research for independent investors, including renewable energy stocks issues a sector snapshot for portable power generation stocks and the growing global market opportunity.

Diesel and gas power generators (Gensets) represent a bullish growing global industry according to research firm GlobalData, predicting the market will nearly double from $12 billion in 2011 to some $22.3 billion by 2020. GlobalData also says growth is being driven by an increasing need for safe and reliable off-grid power in numerous end markets.
Key growth areas to watch are India and China, with India growing from $1.2 billion to $2.54 billion by 2020 and China growing from $2.4 billion to nearly $5.5 billion by 2020.
According to an article in Forbes in late August following the report, "The projected market growth will likely benefit major industrial equipment vendors like Caterpillar (NYSE:CAT ) and Cummins (NYSE:CMI ) with a strong position in the distributed power space. But smaller companies like Scotland’s Aggreko with experience working in developing countries will also benefit.”
Briggs & Stratton Corporation (NYSE: BGG), with its wholly owned subsidiary that is North America's number one marketer of portable generators is also poised to benefit in the industry growth. The Company just released a news and media alert September 3rd entitled, "Portable, Standby Generators Play Powerful Role in National Preparedness Month."
As the market grows, energy efficiency and the role of renewable energy in the mix will also be key. From solar to fuel cells, new technology that represents a greener alternative will take a leading role.
Pike Research says that the current period of product development will lead to commercialization for portable fuel cells at an increasingly larger scale beginning in the 2015 timeframe.
A smaller player in the sector, Powerdyne International Inc. (OTCBB:PWDY) is aiming to meet greener standards while still being able to utilize traditional fuels. The company recently announced that it is expanding its reach in the renewable energy market through strategic relationships such as the recently formed agreement with Turning Mill Energy, of Sandwich, Massachusetts, a solar and wind company’.
The Powerdyne Genset uses a completely different type of engine that is small, powerful, light weight, portable, air cooled, runs on almost any gaseous fuel, environmentally green, and is easily maintained and serviced.
Dale Euga, President of Powerdyne International, Inc., stated, "Our companies will work together to offer large electrical users independent power generation, on-site. This lowers the user's cost of electricity without incurring expensive capital equipment costs."
Mr. Euga noted that, "The need for distributed electricity, using integrated and balanced technologies, is the key to continuing worldwide commercial growth."

As Apple (APPL) does others will Follow: Apple's Biometric Acquisition Will Play a Key Role in Changing the Face of Mobile Security

New York, NY - September 10, 2013 (www.investorideas.com newswire) Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in investing ideas in leading sectors including biometric and mobile security stocks issues a snapshot on key developments in the sector. Apple's (NASDAQ:AAPL) acquisition of mobile security company AuthenTec for over $350 million has Wall Street and the industry buzzing about how biometric technology in smartphones will impact the global m-commerce market.

Gartner Research projects worldwide mobile payment transactions will exceed $235 billion in 2013, reaching $721 billion in annual transactions with more than 450 million users by 2017. That creates a big opportunity for companies in the mobile security space.
Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), always known as first to market and an innovator, apparently plans to integrate the fingerprint scanners into the iPhone 6 to address consumer concerns over mobile payment security.
How significant is the biometrics acquisition for Apple? Wells Fargo analyst raised its forecast for Apple based on the biometrics integration.
"We believe investors may be under- appreciating Apple's (NASDAQ:AAPL) Authentec acquisition--specifically the ability to perform secure device-side authentication, which could help open up the mCommerce market and further penetrate the enterprise market," said Wells Fargo analyst Maynard Um.
Investorideas.com Newswire NXT-ID, Inc. (OTCQB: NXTD), a new player on the scene in payment security, is launching the Wocket this fall; a unique technology takes a very different approach: Instead of replacing the wallet, they are improving it! The Wocket™ reduces the number of cards in a consumer's wallet while supporting virtually every payment method currently available at Point-of-Sale (POS) at retailers around the world including magnetic stripe, EMV/NFC and barcode…all within a secure vault within a wallet. The company then plans to roll out a full suite of MobileBio™ technologies for mobile applications including its 3D Facial recognition technology.
NXT-ID, Inc.'s MobileBio™ facematch™ is a modular facial recognition platform technology that can be applied to a variety of platforms including smartphones, tablets, laptops and desktop computers. Depending on the number of cameras available and level of security desired, facematch™ will use 2D, pseudo 3D or 3D facial recognition algorithms to allow the user access to their device, data, or door. facematch™ supports both 3D and 2D camera devices, supporting various applications such as adding access control to a door or prison to adding superior authentication and/or encryption to a mobile device.
Samsung (KSE:oo5930) is also rumored to be integrating biometrics fingerprint technology in their smartphones and related devices. Samsung previously launched its biometric Face Unlock feature for Galaxy but the technology was easily fooled by photos from its users.
Precise Biometrics AB (PREC) recently had a big run following news of its deal with Fingerprint Cards. Precise Biometrics AB and Fingerprint Cards AB (FPC) announced they have entered into an agreement where FPC will license Precise Biometrics' fingerprint algorithm to further enhance the performance of FPC world leading capacitive sensors. FPC will bundle the algorithm into existing sensor products, primarily targeting mobile phones and tablets. The bundle will further enhance the performance of FPC sensors in terms of accuracy and speed which are important criteria especially in the fast growing mobile and tablet markets.
If Apple integrates biometrics successfully, the world as always, will follow and the race will be on for the search for the best and most secure biometrics technology for mobile users.

Australian based Jenepe Asset Management launches new IPO fund

September 6, 2013 (www.investorideas.com newswire) Australian based investment house Jenepe Asset Management, in joint venture with London based IPO Capital Partners, has launched a fund targeting new listing opportunities.

The Certified Investment Management Analyst (CIMA) regulated fund, Jenepe IPO Capital Fund S.P., domiciled offshore in the Cayman Islands, will be managed by Nicholas Pereza-Mathews and will take positions in range of financial instruments focused on the Pre-IPO sector.
Mr Pereza-Mathews, who has over twenty years' experience in global markets and funds management working in London and Australasia, previously managed the Australian Natural Resources Fund, a top performing fund within its class achieving sound Alpha returns under his stewardship.
Mr Pereza-Mathews says the IPO sector has vast potential for growth given there has been a lack of capital commitment available for new listings since the GFC, with IPO's falling off dramatically each year.
"Our process is driven by performance and not asset gathering, aiming to provide capital appreciation over the medium term," Mr Pereza-Mathews says.
"As a seed to IPO fund we will be able to invest at an early stage of a companies intended listing which should generate significant returns when the companies complete a stock exchange listing."
"This is achieved by investing in a diversified range of securities ranging from early stage growth companies through to established companies seeking to list on a global recognised investment exchange within a 12 month period."
The fund's investment process is driven by a security selection process based on ascertaining the suitability of an investment through an in-depth assessment of commercial and financial aspects of each opportunity, screened by Jenepes' Investment Committee due diligence process.
IPO Capital Partner's Clifford Giles says we are excited about the new opportunities presented with the Jenepe IPO Capital Fund and Jenepe Asset Management team.
"We look forward to adding value to the team from our London base as we approach our next growth phase."
Mr Pereza-Mathews says once identified, opportunities are screened to ensure they are of an investment grade.
"A full assessment of the proposed investment is completed to establish whether the business is of a suitable quality and attractively priced," Mr Pereza-Mathews says.
"Jenepe is a focused investment manager seeking to provide superior investment returns for institutional and sophisticated investors, managed by an experienced team with an established track record of investing in seed and IPOs."
Jenepe also offers Global Markets and Foreign Exchange dealing and Capital Raising for sophisticated and institutional investors, with the aim to deliver profitable outcomes for clients from the one provider.

Mining Stock Alert: SilverCrest (TSX.V: SVL) (NYSE MKT: SVLC) Reports Additional Drill Results at Santa Elena Mine; Another Discovery and More High Grade Intercepts, 15 metres @ 4 gpt Au and 243 gpt Ag including 2 metres @ 17.5 gpt Au and 664 gpt Ag

Vancouver, British Columbia - September 5, 2013 (Investorideas.com Mining Stocks Newswire) SilverCrest Mines Inc. (TSX.V:SVL) ( NYSE MKT: SVLC) is pleased to announce further results of delineation drilling at the Santa Elena Mine in Sonora, Mexico. A total of 181 core and RVC holes were completed in this program of which 134 holes were utilized in the recently announced “Santa Elena Pre-Feasibility Study and Update Reserve Technical Report” (Technical Report). Results for the remaining 47 holes reported in this news release were not available for inclusion in the revised Reserves and Resources for the Technical Report. The results show further expansion of the Santa Elena Deposit which is still open latterly and to depth (see attached Figures). Several of these reported holes identified additional high grade intercepts, expanded the recently discovered El Cholugo and El Cholugo Dos Zones, and also discovered a new zone called ”Tortuga”. Please refer to the Company website at www.silvercrestmines.com for further information.

N. Eric Fier, President and COO stated; “This delineation drill program at Santa Elena was immensely successful. With this program, we drilled the known portion of the deposit at approximately 35 metre centres, announced revised reserves and resources, extended mineralization beyond our current reserve boundary and identified three new zones, El Cholugo, El Cholugo Dos and the newly discovered Tortuga. The recently announced results of the revised underground reserve and resource estimations have extended the current mine life to a minimum of 8 years . Our underground ramp has progressed beyond 1,500 metres in development length. We have intercepted the Main Mineralized Zone underground and extracted approximately 8,000 tonnes of ore from the 625 metre level. The conventional mill construction and underground development currently underway are setting the stage for the successful expansion of the mine with an anticipated significant increase in metals production starting in 2014.”
Drill intercepts continue to expand the mineralization along the Main Mineralized Zone (MMZ) which remains open laterally and to depth. Intercepts are up to 100 metres beyond the boundary of current stope designs and reserves estimates. Most notable are the multiple high grade intercepts to the east and depth including;
  • SE-13-144; 9.2 metres grading 4.83 gpt Au and 171.4 gpt Ag including 0.8 metres grading 30.20 gpt Au and 638.0 gpt Ag
  • SE-13-152; 15.0 metres grading 4.03 gpt Au and 243.2 gpt Ag including 2.0 metres grading 17.5 gpt Au and 664.0 gpt Ag
  • SE-13-160; 13.3 metres grading 3.52 gpt Au and 136.2 gpt Ag including 4.1 metres grading 6.46 gpt Au and 133.6 gpt Ag
  • SE-13-166; 11.7 metres grading 3.97 gpt Au and 189.5 gpt Ag including 5.0 metres grading 8.10 gpt Au and 334.4 gpt Ag
  • SE-13-175; 8.8 metres grading 1.91 gpt Au and 70.6 gpt Ag including 2.0 metres grading 6.70 gpt Au and 226.1 gpt Ag
The El Cholugo Zone continues to expand with 7 new drill hole intercepts. The dimensions of this newly discovered zone are now approximately 400 metres long by 200 metres high and the mineralization remains open to the west and to depth. A parallel mineralized zone (EL Cholugo Dos) was also intercepted with 3 new drill hole intercepts. Dimensions of this discovery are currently undetermined with further drilling anticipated to test this mineralization. Both of these zones will be easily accessible from planned underground development of the adjacent MMZ.
The new Tortuga Zone is a northwest trending vein, breccia and stockwork zone outcropping on the surface and in the pit (see attached Figure). This zone is similar in mineralogy to the Main Mineralized Zone which is currently being successfully mined. This discovery has been drilled within an estimated area of 200 metres long by 300 metres high with an average thickness of approximately 3 metres. Numerous mineralized veins parallel or sub-parallel to the discovery were also intersected in drilling and are under review as potential additional targets. Tortuga is exposed in the north wall of the pit making this discovery easily accessible from the open pit and planned underground development of the adjacent MMZ. Further work is planned at Tortuga for resources estimation and subsequent potential conversion to reserves.
Mineralized intervals reported range from 0.5 metres to 16.0 metres further supporting the proposed underground bulk mining approach at Santa Elena. All mineralized drill intercepts reported are near true thicknesses. The most significant assay results in this series of drill holes are shown in the following tables (all numbers are rounded);
TORTUGA (NEW DISCOVERY)
Investorideas.com Newswire MAIN MINERALIZED ZONE (MMZ)
Investorideas.com Newswire EL CHOLUGO
Investorideas.com Newswire EL CHOLUGO DOS
Investorideas.com Newswire All sample analyses were completed by ALS Chemex in Hermosillo, Mexico and North Vancouver, BC or the Santa Elena internal lab with checks at ALS Chemex.
Of the 47 holes being reported above only three holes, SE-12-100, 101 and 183, intercepted no significant assay results. Holes SE-12-97, 98 and 99 were previously announced only as general mineralized intercepts with results stated above. Holes SE-12-100 and 101 were not previous announced with their locations off trend and north of the deposit.
Approximately 58,493 metres of drilling were completed in the delineation program to convert underground resources to reserves, expand total resources and test further potential outside the results of the Pre-Feasibiity Study. One drill is currently on site completing an underground program (planned 1,500 metres) for detailed design of first production stopes anticipated to be mined in late 2014.

Medical Technology Breaking News: Aethlon Medical (OTCQB: AEMD) to Present at Exosomes and Circulating Biomarkers 2013 Summit

SAN DIEGO - September 5, 2013 (Investorideas.com newswire) Aethlon Medical, Inc. (OTCBB:AEMD), announced today that Company Chairman and CEO, Jim Joyce has accepted an invitation to present at the Exosomes and Circulating Biomarkers 2013 Summit on September 12th. Mr. Joyce's presentation is entitled; "Extracorporeal Elimination of Circulating Exosomes as a Therapeutic Adjunct to Address Infectious Disease and Cancer." The presentation will highlight the clinical advancement of the Aethlon Hemopurifier® in treating hepatitis c virus (HCV) and discuss the opportunity to expand therapeutic indications to include cancer based on targeting the elimination of circulating tumor-secreted exosomes. The conference will be held at the Town and Country Resort Hotel in San Diego, California.

Aethlon is currently preparing to launch the first U.S. studies of Hemopurifier® therapy based on the recent approval of an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Under the IDE, Aethlon will enroll ten end stage renal disease (ESRD) patients infected with HCV as part of a feasibility study to demonstrate Hemopurifier safety. Successful completion of the feasibility study will set the stage for Aethlon to conduct pivotal studies required for market clearance to treat HCV and other disease conditions.
The conference abstract of the presentation follows:
Extracorporeal Elimination of Circulating Exosomes as a Therapeutic Adjunct to Address Infectious Disease and Cancer on 9/12/13 at 3:45pm pacific.
The Aethlon Hemopurifier® is a first-in-class device that targets the rapid elimination of infectious disease and cancer glycopathogens from circulation. In cancer, the Hemopurifier has been demonstrated to capture exosomes underlying lymphoma, melanoma, ovarian, and breast cancer. These microvesicular particles trigger apoptosis of immune cells and have been reported to facilitate tumor growth, metastasis, and the development of drug resistance.
In design, the Hemopurifier consists of the affinity lectin Galanthus nivalis agglutinin (GNA) immobilized in the outer-capillary space of plasma membrane technologies. The resulting mechanism provides selective target elimination as GNA binds high mannose signatures abundant on the surface of exosomes and viral glycoproteins. Studies of hepatitis c (HCV) infected patients receiving a three-treatment Hemopurifier protocol combined with interferon-based standard of care resulted in undetectable HCV in as little as seven days in hard-to-treat genotype-1 patients. The studies also documented the ability of the Hemopurifier to capture as many as 300 billion HCV copies during a single six- hour treatment. The FDA recently approved an IDE that allows for the initiation of US feasibility studies.

Solar Stock XsunX, Inc. (OTCQB: XSNX) Industry Update: U.S. Market Installs 723 Megawatts in Q1 2013; Grows 33% Over Last Year

New York, NY, Point Roberts, WA - September 4, 2013 (Investorideas.com renewable energy newswire) Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in investing ideas in leading sectors including renewable energy stocks, issues a corporate and industry update for solar stock, XsunX, Inc. (OTCQB: XSNX), entitled U.S. Market Installs 723 Megawatts in Q1 2013; Grows 33% Over Last Year.

Tom M. Djokovich, CEO of XsunX, Inc. (OTCQB: XSNX) said in the corporate/ industry update:
"As the headline above from a report offered by the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) outlines, the solar industry is making tremendous and significant progress not just as a viable power production source, but as a sales and revenue source as well."
Continued…
For XsunX, this type of growth domestically, in addition to growth occurring internationally, provides an immense opportunity for the Company to diversify and leverage its knowledge and extensive contact base in the PV industry.
Over the past several newsletters, we have been outlining how XsunX is expanding our marketing and sales efforts to add solar business solutions to our service offerings. With these additions, we are working to take advantage of new sales and revenue generating opportunities.
As we move into September, our sales efforts will be multi-pronged. We will be working and meeting with prospective customers for our CIGSolar® manufacturing technology, and responding to quote requests for commercial and utility scale projects.
We believe that this expansion will increase exposure of our CIGSolar® and technology offerings, improve our opportunities to generate revenues in the near term, and by generating revenues, may reduce or eliminate dependency on equity capital to fund operations - a positive for all shareholders.
For more information on what we are doing, you can view a recent interview from last Friday on MoneyTV with our CEO, Tom Djokovich here.
In regards to updating the web site: our web designer is back from vacation and we are making good progress with the updates and plan to launch in the near future.

Getting the Most from your Risk Capital

September 3, 2013 (www.investorideas.com newswire) Risk Capital Investment: the aggressive pursuit of profits in new or high risk sectors, with some percentage of your investment capital, in order to offset low growth sectors and setbacks that occur as a natural part of investing in stocks and bonds. Without some higher risk higher reward holdings it is nearly impossible to keep your portfolio growing at a rate great enough to offset inflation and the myriad of taxes and fees associated with serious investing.

Just what percentage of your holdings should be higher risk is a matter of both opinion and individual risk tolerance. It is typically agreed that while it needs to be a part of any serious portfolio it should not make up the majority or anything close to the majority as a few bad days could erase years of hard work and leave you unable to recoup the losses in a timely manner due to insufficient capital remaining.
Many people are straying away from the fixed percentage rules of diversification. Logically, to say that it should be the same amount in all market types does not make any sense at all. There needs to be some common sense market timing strategy involved in these decisions. If your low risk savings, bonds, and T-bills are not doing a lot in terms of profit and the medium risk areas such as conservative stock holdings are anemic it is not a bad thing in all situations to add a few percentage points of your portfolio to a higher risk category to search for profits. At the same time if the stocks are volatile and have potential for large swings then it is already a higher risk/reward setting and cutting back on the “high risk” portion makes sense.
Since it is still basically accepted that in no situation should the high risk investments make up the majority of your investments, the question remains how do you make the most of that money? If an actively managed portfolio has a value of $50,000 even a relatively aggressive 20% to high risk investment leaves only $10k to use in search of the highest available profits. Even on a solid profitable success that obviously is limiting in total profit that you can achieve.
One area you might look into further if you are not already involved in the market if the Forex currency exchange market. The reason for this area is very simple. While in most risk investing you can only use the cash you have available, a quark of the Forex brokers is they offer leveraged accounts. What this means is you can use your cash to take a position and the broker will stand behind that cash for many times the amount of your actual investment. Amounts of leverage vary from broker to broker but 50x to 100x are common and greater amounts are not difficult to find.
How does the leverage work? If you had $10,000 in your account and find a position based on indicators in a platform such as the MT4 platform from www.alpari.com you feel comfortable with, you take a position on a currency pairing for $1000 of your money. By using the leverage provided by your broker, your actual position you are taking is (at 100x) $100,000. This has allowed you to use a small percentage of the smallest piece of your portfolio to make a move that is worth twice as much as your entire portfolio. The advantages in this are obvious.
What is the down side? The downside is very simple as well, and why caution, common sense, and sound research is essential. If you stand to make profits on a $100,000 investment you also stand to take the loss associated with the $100k. This is why you are using only a percentage of your risk capital, the rest must stay in reserve to cover a potential loss greater than the $1000 initially invested. The proven value of this however is when you make a good call and let it run you can realize very large profits quickly and on a scale that far exceed your individual investment power.
