Easy to Sign-Up

You are not guaranteed that you will get the entire amount that you request for an IPO. Also, the minimum investment isa bit higher than a regular stock purchase. For IPOs, it is $100. Plus, there are maximum investment limitations for the IPO. Also, you need to have the funds available in the account in order to order IPO shares, so I recommend that you open the account now and fund it as soon as you can so that you are ready when the next IPO that you are interested in comes out.

The LOYAL3 brokerage firm is a member of FINRA and SIPC. In the interest of full disclosure, I have an account with LOYAL3. I participated in two of their recent IPOs, and made roughly 60% the day the stock went public for one of the stocks and 30% the first day for the other stock. The sign-up process is very easy and the customer service is outstanding.

Umbilical Cord Blood Breakthroughs - Time for Cord Blood Stocks?

Cord blood is blood that comes from umbilical cords, and contains a significant amount of hematopoietic stem cells. Specialized cord blood banks are available to store this blood. Cord blood stem cells are considered far superior to stem cells from bone marrow. Parents often have their newborn's cord blood preserved in the event it may be needed at some point in the future for treatment of their child's or the child's sibling's cancer or genetic disease.

Numerous diseases have been treated with cord blood. As an example, several years ago, The Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center in Seattle, Washington made a major breakthrough in the use of umbilical cord blood to treat blood cancers such as leukemia. The discovery dramatically decreases the recovery time of white blood cells.

Even the U.S. House of Representatives recently passed a bill to extend the federal cord blood program. For additional information on cord blood and how it is collected, stored, and used, go to CordBloodStocks.com.

The cord blood industry is significant and continues to grow. Even Richard Branson, of Virgin Records and Virgin America (VA) fame, is in the cord blood business, setting up Virgin Health, a cord blood bank.

Investors can choose either the cord blood banks or the companies that use cord blood to develop cures. Here are some stocks that participate in the cord blood business. Be aware that some of these companies have low market caps and are very speculative.

Baxter International Inc. (BAX) makes blood collection bags for umbilical cord blood and develop adult stem-cell therapies. They also own a patent for assembling and methods to process cord blood in a sterile fashion to avoid exposure to bacterial contamination and to disburse the introduction of cryopreservation solution into cord blood at a desired rate, thereby avoiding damage or trauma to the cord blood cells. The stock has a PE ratio of 9 and pays a yield of 1.3%.

PerkinElmer, Inc. (PKI) owns ViaCell, a Cambridge, Massachusetts company which sells ViaCord, a product which is used to preserve baby's umbilical cord blood. They also research and other therapeutic uses of umbilical cord blood-derived and adult-derived stem cells. The stock has a PE of 34 and a yield of 0.6%.
