PennyGold Certification -- The Philosophy

The buying and selling of penny mining stocks is a specialized field. This is especially true when you are buying stocks that meet PennyGold's criteria. As one PennyGold owner once said:

"If buying at the bottom is called 'bottom-fishing', we should
call the PennyGold strategy 'mud-sucking'. "

These dead little stocks trade so thinly, and at such low prices, that you really should be using a broker who knows how to execute your trades efficiently.

As just one example: if you place an order through a big online discount brokerage for 50,000 shares to buy at $0.08, they may very well just enter that order in one big block. Since this stock may not trade 50,000 shares in a month, this alerts others.

The asking price goes up immediately for two reasons:

1) Sellers increase the asking price when they see the demand

2) People watching the stock think that something's up, so they buy, some just on spec, some after research.

So...

You know the $50 you just saved on the commission? ... well the discount broker just cost you $500 due to sloppy execution!

One of the most common questions I receive is...

"Who do you recommend as a penny mining stock broker?"

In order to answer that completely, and to help you broaden your selection, PennyGold is assembling a list of skilled penny mining brokers.
(NOTE: You do not have to own PennyGold in order to call any of the brokers on the list.)

No, not A list ... THE list ... the list of "PennyGold certified brokers."

What does it take to become a PennyGold-certified broker? See the PennyGold-Certified Brokers Page.

In order to help YOU by building what will be a terrific resource, I really need a hand from you, the penny mining stock enthusiast.

Here's what to do. Contact your broker, and any others that you know of or come across. Ask him or her to complete the e-mail (below) and send it to me.

The first question that s/he'll ask you is...

"Why? What's in it for me?"

The answer is ...

"A lot!"

PennyGold lists these brokers in table form in the PennyGold-Certified Brokers Page. The Web site receives over 500 visitors per day ... people with an interest in penny mining stocks.

And we will publish the list in each issue of the rapidly growing PGOLD XPRESS newsletter.

These two sources will be a never-ending source of new clients. And given the high-quality demographics of Web surfers, these are high-quality clients!

Now, as the list starts to build, I expect that brokers will naturally improve the terms that they offer to investors. After all, all the info will be there for all potential investors to see, right on the Web site. Comparison shopping couldn't be easier! A great service for PGOLD XPRESS subscribers!

(As the list grows, I will eliminate weaker entries, or brokers for whom I receive many complaints. )

Naturally, as you review the list, don't just pick the cheapest commission. To make the decision, blend all the factors, plus one more ... compatibility.

One more note about the list...

My top priority is to list INDIVIDUALS, for all the reasons explained in this issue. If you feel strongly about a discount brokerage COMPANY, despite what I have written here, feel free to have someone at that organization complete and fill in the e-mail below in the name of the company.

The body of the e-mail should contain the following text. The broker should copy the text, paste it into an e-mail to me, then fill in the blanks, adding anything else s/he feels is appropriate.

The subject of the e-mail should be...
