Avalon does high-pressure "penny stock" promotions to:
- entice you to buy an otherwise low-valued company's stock so
- it will rally up above $1.00 so
- the company can trade on a regular stock exchange (not the OTC/pink sheets where they are traded now).
If you prefer an even easier way to lose your money than with these clowns, just burn it in the fireplace (at least then you'll get some heat from it).
