Super 7 (2006) Performance

The stock market was downright frightful on Friday as the Dow suffered its largest one-day loss since May 2003. Analysts were blaming weak earnings reports and the rising price of oil. Pennyheaven Super 7 however is exhibiting one of its strongest openings since inception. All seven stocks are currently in the black.

They recently announced that theirwholly owned subsidiary, Unisyn Solutions, Inc., has entered into an agreement with Election Systems & Software, Inc. for ES&S to manufacture and distribute a Precinct Ballot Counter developed by Unisyn. This represents an entirely new revenue stream for ITSI. (Note of caution: the bid/ask spread is still outrageous).

Pennyheaven Super 7 - 2003

Pennyheaven.com News Report - 01/01/03

First lets review and see where we are:
Major indexes are down 3 years running, Nasdaq just
experienced the worst December ever, consumer confidence
is down near a seven year low, and the thought of war is on
too many minds.

I think its safe to say now is not the best time to be a
stock picker. Still, Pennyheaven Top 10 (2002) did finish
in the black (+ 10%) even though 7 of the 10 were in the
red. HQNT finished up 400%, LDNA up 100%, and UBET
up 67%. I’ll take it.

This year we’re doing something different. The current
environment dictates we get lean and mean.
Instead of the Top 10 we’ve narrowed it down to Top 7.
No Fat; No Waste.

Ladies and Gentlemen,
