There's nothing more vital to a up-and-coming small cap stocks than liquidity, which ironically, is often the most difficult thing for them to muster. The best of the best of the small cap ilk, however, tend to find cash when they need it, because money always finds an opportunity to multiply itself. Enter Konared Corp. (OTCBB:KRED). Not that the company was cash-strapped to begin with, but it won't have to worry about cash for a long, long time. KRED inked a deal with an institutional investment fund that will guarantee the company can sell up to $12 million worth of shares to this fund over the course of the next two and a half years.
Normally such a deal would be the kind of thing that irritates investors to the point of selling their shares - the fear of dilution is just overwhelming. So why aren't KRED shares tanking on the heels of the news? Because this funding deal Konared Corp. made isn't one that puts the common shareholder at a disadvantage. Indeed, this stock-sale agreement is one that's unusually fair to everyone.... and the fact that the company was able to negotiate such reasonable terms only bolsters the bullish case for KRED.

Advisors' Opinion:- [By Roberto Pedone]
Another stock that's starting to move within range of triggering a big breakout trade is Sky-mobi (MOBI), which, through its subsidiaries, engages in the operation of a mobile application platform embedded on mobile phones to provide mobile application store and services in the People�s Republic of China. This stock has been red hot so far in 2013, with shares up a whopping 88%.
If you look at the chart for Sky-mobi, you'll notice that this stock recently formed a triple bottom chart pattern at $3.31, $3.28 and $3.40 a share. That bottoming pattern occurred over the last two months. Shares of MOBI have now started to uptrend and flirt with its 50-day moving average of $3.76 a share. That move is quickly pushing MOBI within range of triggering a big breakout trade.
Traders should now look for long-biased trades in MOBI if it manages to break out above some near-term overhead resistance levels at $3.71 to $3.83 a share with high volume. Look for a sustained move or close above those levels with volume that hits near or above its three-month average action of 145,934 shares. If that breakout triggers soon, then MOBI will set up to re-test or possibly take out its 52-week high at $4.96 a share. Any high-volume move above that level will then give MOBI a chance to tag its next major overhead resistance levels at $5.55 to $6.13 a share.
Traders can look to buy MOBI off any weakness to anticipate that breakout and simply use a stop that sits right below some key near-term support levels at $3.40 to $3.28 a share. One can also buy MOBI off strength once it takes out that breakout levels with volume and then simply use a stop that sits a comfortable percentage from your entry point.

Perfect World Co (NASDAQ: PWRD) is estimated to post its Q2 earnings at $0.41 per share on revenue of $150.56 million.
