Zoomd Technologies Ltd.

Zoomd Technologies (TSX-V: ZOMD) (OTC: ZMDTF) is a new advertising company from Israel we recently wrote about in our article titled “From Start up to Blue Chip Clients”. We highlighted ZOMD as what we believe to be a great company as the company has recently announced that it has generated over CAD $36 million in annual revenues and currently sits at a valuation of CAD $51 million. ZOMD operates in two segments, both on the publisher side and the advertiser side. For publishers, ZOMD implements its own search engine for publishers in order to generate more income, and on the advertisers’ side, it enables companies to better utilize traffic data and analytics for better conversion to purchases. The conversion to a higher purchase rate helps advertisers increase their revenues through improved conversion rates and reduces the media spend due to the data analytics ZOMD offers its clients.
Since our recent publication at $.32 cents, shares of ZOMD have increased 71% to $.55 cents on no news however investors are starting to take notice and conduct their due diligence on this hidden advertising company. Insiders and angel investors hold a majority of the stock representing 88% of the float which leaves approximately 11.5 million shares that are available, making it possibly one of the tightest floats we have come across and should be placed on HIGH alert for investors as more developments on additional contracts and strategic growth which may be on the horizon.
Sona Nanotech Inc.

Sona Nanotech (CSE: SONA) (OTCQB: SNANF) is a Corona virus stock which we put on high alert as one of our top covid-19 stocks back in march at around $.51cents, and since then, shares of SONA have rocketed to a high of $3.80 for a return of 645%. Shares of SONA rallied to a high of $3.80 on rumors that the company had received validation of the company’s Covid-19 test kit and is preparing for mass manufacturing. On May 22nd 2020 announce that it has engaged MRIGlobal, a leading scientific research organization to assist SONA in conduct clinical validation studies and analytics for its Covid-19 rapid testing kits. These studies will be used for a submission to Health Canada for regulatory approval and Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). CEO of SONA Darren Rowles was quoted "We are delighted to be moving into the final validation process and looking forward to the potential of a test that can tangibly advance the safety and quality of life for our communities. Our lab team, in particular, deserves credit for their tremendous work in significantly progressing our antigen test prototype in a short period of time”.
We remain bullish on SONA as one of the few small cap Covid stocks and investors should continue to keep a close eye as positive developments from Health Canada and the FDA could propel shares of SONA significantly higher.
Geomega Resources Inc

Geomega Resources Inc. (TSX-V: GMA) (OTC: GOMRF) is a new rare earth company that we have been tracking as of late due to an increase in volume. Geomega aims to reduce and recycle the waste that is produced from rare earth magnet manufacturers. Recently, GMA has temporarily shifted its pilot project located in the National Research Council facility in Boucherville Quebec to manufacture hand sanitizers for the province. GMA is currently able to produce 675 liters of hand sanitizers and the company intends to supply old age retirement homes and hospitals in the province. It is important to note that these changes are not a shift of business but rather to capitalize on an opportunity that has an infrastructure already in place to generate revenue in the immediate term. Geomega also announced recently that it has added Matt Silvestro, the president and owner of Jobmaster Magnets Canada Inc. to its board of directors.
Jobmaster Magnets Canada is a partner of GMA, as Geomega entered into a partnership with Jobmaster back in February to assist with suppling waste feed to Geomega. CEO of GMA Kiril Mugerman stated “Matt's experience in operation management, setting up the required ISO Quality management programs and internal audits will be vital in the starting up of the first rare earths recycling plant”.
With possible supply agreements for the company’s new hand sanitizer with hospitals and nursing homes in Quebec and the further development of its facility to convert rare earth waste later this year, GMA is an under the radar stock that may break out of the $.20 cent range with substantial developments.
