LBIX: Leading Brands Inc.

LBIX is owed some compensation from HANS for breaking an exclusive rights contract. There were rumors that HANS would buy out LBIX because of this but we feel this is highly unlikely.

This stock should be trading in the 6.00 range and very possibly could take out their most recent highs. The stock price went as low as 1.80 and we've been buying on the wayd down. In a quick 3 days with the market dropping 450 points on one day LBIX was able to test the 3.00 resistance line by hitting 2.92. That resistance line should be smashed in the coming weeks as LBIX has just announced a deal with Kroger one of America's largest retail grocery stores.
