The May 2010 issue of the Investor Advisory Service is now available online. To access the issue, please visit http://www.iclub.com/investing/ias/. Print subscribers should expect to receive their issues by U.S. Mail within 3 business days. 

Our three recommended companies this month include a small information-technology and e-commerce firm involved in servicing companies in the financial sector; a midsized and fast-growing global financial transaction processing company; and a large international pharmaceutical company that is succeeding in a highly-competitive business. 

In addition, we'd like to extend a warm welcome to all of our new subscribers! We hope that your portfolios will profit from the investing ideas presented in each issue of the Investor Advisory Service, and are glad to have you aboard. 

All subscribers, including those new to the Service and those familiar with our approach to the stock market, may benefit from a review of our newly-revised How to Use the Investor Advisory Service guide. You may download a copy from the IAS subscriber web site—look for the link in the right column of the site. It's an Adobe Acrobat (PDF) file and is about 16 mb in size, so we suggest saving it to your computer for future reference instead of reading it online.

Remember, StockCentral subscribers can save up to 50% on IAS subscriptions. See the StockCentral Discounts page for details.
