Point Roberts, WA - February 14, 2013 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com staff: Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in sector research for independent investors issues a snapshot for the stevia market and related stocks. Just a day ahead of Valentine’s Day; a day of celebration where sugar is a key ingredient, the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) issued a press release that it has filed a 54-page regulatory petition detailing the substantial scientific evidence that added sugars, especially in drinks, causes weight gain, obesity, and chronic diseases like diabetes, heart disease, and gout.

According to their release, "soda and other sugar drinks are the single biggest source of calories in the American diet. Americans, on average, consume between 18 and 23 teaspoons--about 300 to 400 calories worth--of added sugars per day."As sugar is targeted, natural sweeteners such as stevia are positioned to be major winners in the battle against obesity.

1. Has Our Government Become Dysfunctional?

“Not One Dime”

President Barrack Obama, February 12, 2013

This a.m. we comment on president Obama's state of the union message from last evening. Perhaps the most obvious impact of the speech was the potential for further intrusion of government into our lives and the pledge that that intrusion would cost “not one dime.”
Any reasonable person will know that pledge cannot easily be fulfilled.

 SHANGHAI - February 13, 2013 (Investorideas.com newswire) - China Logistics Group (OTCQB:CHLO), an international freight forwarder and logistics management company, announced today that it sees shipping volumes doubling in 2013 for its South American route out of Shanghai launched in 2012.

China Logistics began offering freight forwarding services from China to destinations in South America in March of 2012. Trade between China and South America has increased significantly in the past ten years due in large part to strong economic growth in countries like Brazil and Argentina. Management’s decision to begin providing freight forwarding services to Brazil and Argentina out of Shanghai in 2012 led to the Company achieving freight volume of 3,000 TEU or, twenty foot equivalent units, generating revenue for the year from the South American route of approximately $720,000 with $ 139,000 in gross profit. In 2013, management expects its shipping business to the South America route to double to volumes of at least 6,000 TEU generating revenue over $1,400,000.

An Interesting Option in the Uranium Space

A Case Study on the Next Potential Uranium Discovery Story

Last month we wrote a Note on the potential for uranium junior mining companies to outperform the broader markets over the next 12 to 24 months. Our rationale centered on the current low uranium spot price that has caused a scaling back of production/expansion on the part of the major producers (BHP, Cameco, AREVA, etc.). This is compounded by the potential for the Japanese nuclear industry to come back online (slowly), the nuclear build out in China and other countries, and the potential end or change in terms of the Megatons to Megawatts agreement.
