Greg's Note: Some of the biggest and best innovations being made these days are in the sciences, most notably medicine. There is a tremendous amount of competition out there to be the first to come up with the next groundbreaking vaccine. And once a company does this successfully, they can be looking at decades of growth and profits. Penny stock guru Greg Guenthner has identified a couple of up and coming companies that are looking to help in the fight against cancer, and is showing some huge growth capability.

The media have dubbed it "the new age of epidemics." From SARS to cancer, diabetes to the flu, we live in a world of increasingly powerful germs and diseases. Drug companies large and small have renewed their interest in one specific health care sector. It's a true form of preventative medicine — a rapidly growing field that's already decimated countless dangerous and deadly diseases. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Special~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Make Over 600% Profits in One Month! Find that hard to believe? Penny Stock Fortunes Editor Greg Guenthner has the "key" to wealth… We've found a proven way for you to make a fortune by risking very little by tracking Wall Street's "Black Market." We've researched, we've analyzed, we've tracked, and we want you to know the which stocks will be the winners… ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Now biotechs and Big Pharma are in a race against time. Their mission is clear: Rid the world of the onslaught of superbugs and diseases that could cause the next great epidemic. And they'll use second-generation technology to create some of the world's most powerful drug saviors. There's money to be made in this field — and it hasn't gone unnoticed by some of the planet's top investors. George Soros' resume is nothing short of impressive. His legendary Quantum Fund returned investors an average 42.5 percent per year for 10 years — a total of 3,365 percent gains. In 2007, he raked in a staggering $2.9 billion, making him the Street's No.1 earner for the year… And then there's Warren Buffett — an investor who needs no introduction. An initial $10,000 investment in Buffett's famous holding company Berkshire Hathaway would have been worth more than $1.2 million at the end of last year… Sure, they've made their money by occasionally taking different routes. However, Soros and Buffett are "sharing" some intriguing ideas these days, according to James Altucher, managing director of Formula Capital and author of Trade Like Warren Buffett. The two moguls are putting up big bucks for health care, he says, with a concentration on vaccines… This bit of info may go against perceptions of Buffett as the ultimate value investor. Altucher claims this is a common misconception. Rather, Buffett is what he calls a "long-term demographic investor." That's why Buffett and Soros are investing in health care and biotech stocks like GlaxoSmithKlein, Johnson & Johnson and Sanofi Aventis. These companies have a lot in common — most importantly, they are the world's most prolific developers of vaccine treatments. I've found an opportunity Warren Buffett can't get his hands on — an opportunity to get in on not one, but two emerging biotechs in a race to create the ultimate cancer vaccine. For years, the vaccine landscape was ruled by the basics — measles, mumps and rubella. And, of course, annual flu shots for the elderly and those affected with immune disorders. The market for vaccines was relatively stagnant. In 2005, vaccines accounted for less than three percent of the global pharmaceutical industry, according to the Wharton School of business. It just wasn't very profitable to make cheap flu shots. And the antiquated process of incubating the inactive viruses to go into the shots is time-consuming, and the shots are easily contaminated. Now we're looking at a transition to a different kind of vaccine. In fact, we saw the wave of next-generation vaccines hit the development pipeline as early as three years ago. Professors at Wharton saw the transition coming: "In the past, a lot of attention was paid to the childhood vaccines, but more and more research and development is focusing on vaccines for adolescents and young adults, or even on adult vaccines for diseases such as cancer," Wharton health care systems professor Patricia Danzon commented more than two years ago. "The health system approach to vaccines really has to adapt to accommodate these new products." This quote appears very prophetic today. Just look at Merck's recent success… Merck's most recent quarter, reported in May 2008, saw revenue rising to $5.8 billion, with much of its sales growth attributed to Gardasil, the company's blockbuster cervical cancer vaccine. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Special~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Options Made Easy The experts and gurus are making much more money in the stock market than you. They're pulling down gains that are sometimes triple the size of what you've been getting, and they're playing the biggest blue-chip stocks around. But now they're not alone. Now you have the chance to learn to play options just like the experts, and it's easier than you think. Click here to begin your training right away… ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Merck, along with many of the other major drug companies, is in the process of developing numerous vaccine treatments for a variety of diseases — some common, some deadly. But there is also a select group of micro caps poised to make major medical breakthroughs with their proprietary vaccine technology. One of these companies is a biotechnology company focused on active cellular immunotherapy. Essentially, this is a method of using a patient's own cells to stimulate the body's immune system to attack a cancer cell as if it were a virus or bacteria. You see, that's the main problem with the human immune system and the current methods of cancer treatments. The immune system doesn't fight cancer cells, because it doesn't recognize them as a threat. And chemotherapy attacks and kills all cells, even healthy ones. Now a better treatment is in the works — one that teaches the body to target the cancer cells. Using active cellular immunotherapy, this company has developed a vaccine that trains the immune system to recognize and eliminate prostate cancer cells. The company is also looking at tweaking the drug to fight other types of cancer, including breast, ovarian and colorectal cancers. Clinical trials have shown that administering the treatment to patients with late-stage cancer prolongs life by about four months. These few months may not sound significant, but they're a start. And these results are impressing leading doctors of cancer research. Regards, P.S.: Unfortunately I cannot give out the name to this company here, it is simply too small. You see, small cap stocks are susceptible to artificial price pumping if too many people see a recommendation like this one. That's why we've created Bulletin Board Elite.
