| Allegiant Travel: Bucking the Trend Zachary Scheidt submits: Allegiant Travel Company (ALGT) is certainly a bright spot in the current recessionary market. Although the S&P dropped more than 4% on Monday, Allegiant actually saw its shares rise by nearly the same amount.

The rise in the stock price is largely a result of the earnings figures which were released over the weekend. The company saw its revenue come in at $142.1 million which was 6.7% higher than the first quarter last year. A small increase in business is pretty exceptional in today’s market but the revenue growth pales in comparison to a gain of 191.5% in earnings. The first quarter earnings came in at $1.37 per share which represents about 80% of the earnings the company saw during the entire YEAR in 2008!Complete Story » seekingalpha.com |

Since Ford started promoting the car through its Fiesta Movement back in March, more than 50,000 people have expressed interest--97% of whom currently do not drive a Ford.U.S.-spec cars are expected to feature a 1.6-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine with twin independent variable valve timing.

Sino-Global Shipping America: Technical Strength, But Structural Red Flags Microcap Speculator submits: At first glance, Chinese microcap shipping concern Sino-Global Shipping America (SINO) has a lot going for it. The chart looks like it will at least retest highs around 5, which would be a gain of over 40% from here. The stock has a small float, over $6 million in cash on the balance sheet, and a miniscule enterprise value-to-revenue ratio of 0.19 (smaller is better). While Sino-Global is still losing a bit of money, it looks like it will generate positive cash flow in the near future. Typically that fundamental setup is a great place to enter a microcap stock.
