CMGI Inc. (CMGI) has just become eligible under the "10 under $10" with yesterday’s drop to $9.97. The shares are slightly above $10 today

The company just recently began trading without the "D" as CMGID after its reverse stock split. Wall St. is still cautious as the main operations of the company are in the ModusLink "supply chain" business. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to be cautious about any aspect of logistics in a slowing economy when transports have remained quite negative.

Stocks that go through reverse stock splits often have a contrary impact from what they intended: lower share prices, mainly from short sellers. Investors seem inclined to stay on the sidelines a bit longer with CMGI, even if this is technically back under $1.00 based on the pre-reverse-split share prices.

The reports earnings on December 3, and caution seems to dictate against jumping in ahead of what will be a tough quarter to please even cult stock investors.

Are You Still Paying With a Debit Card?

The average American spends $17,274 on debit cards a year, and it’s a HUGE mistake. First, debit cards don’t have the same fraud protections as credit cards. Once your money is gone, it’s gone. But more importantly you can actually get something back from this spending every time you swipe.

Issuers are handing out wild bonuses right now. With some you can earn up to 5% back on every purchase. That’s like getting a 5% discount on everything you buy!

Our top pick is kind of hard to imagine. Not only does it pay up to 5% back, it also includes a $200 cash back reward in the first six months, a 0% intro APR, and…. $0 annual fee. It’s quite literally free money for any one that uses a card regularly. Click here to learn more!
