Armada Data (ARD: TSXV) Reports Record Results From Insurance Division

(ARD:TSX-V)
Armada Data is a great Web 2.0 success story. I don't mean "Twitter like" success with huge traffic, notoriety and no revenue model. I mean the kind of company that delivers a real service to real customers for real revenues and profits.
How successful? Their paying a dividend for god's sake.

Chinese Small-Cap Company Feature: China Yida Holdings Reports Big Top and Bottom Line Growth
As many of you know, we are very bullish on the long-term future of Chinese small cap and mid cap companies for two reasons:
1] The obvious reason - China is the fastest growing economy on the planet and nothing is going to slow down its ascent over the next 50 years and beyond. Investing in growth companies there just makes too much sense.
2] Great Results and Valuations - Many Small Cap Chinese Companies are listing in the US (OTCBB, NYSE Alternext and NASDAQ) with great financial results. Unlike many dubious US Small Cap Companies, Chinese Companies don't seem to believe in losing money or failing to execute in a business plan. As such, 7-digit revenues and profits are very common.
From a valuation point of view, many Chinese companies became a victim of their own success in Q4 2008 and Q1 2009.

From a valuation point of view, many Chinese companies became a victim of their own success in Q4 2008 and Q1 2009. Why? When the world needed to start liquidating, one of the first places they looked were China where most investors had significant gains to sell into. This resulted in the proverbial baby being thrown out with the bathwater and some great valuations.
TODAY'S FEATURED COMPANY
China Recycling Energy Corp. is based in Xi'an, China and provides environmentally friendly waste-to-energy technologies to recycle industrial byproducts for steel mills, cement factories and coke plants in China. Currently, recycled energy represents only an estimated 1% of total energy consumption and this renewable energy resource is viewed as a growth market due to intensified environmental concerns and rising energy costs as the Chinese economy continues to expand.
On November 16th 2009, the Company announced unaudited financial results for the third quarter of 2009.

Legend International Holdings Announces Strategic Alliance With One of China's Largest Fertilizer Producers

AGORACOM Client, Legend International Holdings has yet again signed a major deal with a large fertilizer producer. Before getting into today's news, here is some brief but powerful info about the company:

IFFCO is India's largest fertilizer enterprise, a cooperative with over 50 million farmers associated with it, primarily engaged in production and marketing of nitrogenous and phosphate fertilizers in India.

As always, assume I am horribly conflicted by the fact Melkior is now a client of AGORACOM and do your own due diligence. Here are some of the things we like about the company:

Fire River Gold Joins AGORACOM 100 With New TSX Venture Listing, 43-101 and Potential Gold, Copper, Silver Production
I am very pleased to announce that Fire River Gold Corp (FAU:TSXV) is the newest member of The AGORACOM 100 – and represents an extremely fresh opportunity for investors. Why? The Company just listed on the TSX Venture Exchange on November 12 and has followed that up with an online investor relations program, which speaks volumes about the company's confidence. Why? When a company decides to make itself open and accessible to investors from around the world, you have to believe they are confident in their future and want to communicate accordingly.
As always, assume I am horribly conflicted by the fact that Fire River is an AGORACOM client and that we have participated in this private placement. As such, do your own diligence, which I am going to kick start by giving you the following overview and bullet point highlights:

Goldcorp Acquisition of Canplats Resources Continues Pierre Lassonde's Peanut Butter Manifesto
Back in April 2008, I posted a story titled: 3-Way Junior Mining Consolidation Is Pierre Lassonde's "Peanut Butter Manifesto"
Let the fly by nights die, consolidate those with decent assets and let the superstars stand up on their own two feet.
Quality over Quantity folks. It is that simple.
If you're asking what the heck does peanut butter have to do with the junior resources space, have a read of the post. In the meantime, I'm pleased to see continued follow-through on my call for consolidation in the space. Today, Goldcorp agreed to acquire Canplats Resources in a deal worth about $238 million. This is great news for the space as it will surely lead to further money injected into juniors with highly prospective projects. Ironically enough, the story contained a quote from Pierre Lassonde who seems to have his finger on the very pulse of this consolidation trend:
Bullion producers including Goldcorp and Barrick Gold Corp.,
