GWAY - Soaring 23,000% on Reverse Merger News and Filing

This is why I have brought and continue to bring potential reverse merger stocks to my subscribers and readers.  Today pre-market GWAY issued a 10k, its first filing in almost 7 years.  The stock had a last trade of $.01.  After the market opened the stock saw some buying, but nothing extraordinary as there were not many shares out there to purchase.  The largest block I saw was for 25,000 shares at $.05.  I had seen the 10-1 reverse split, which in most cases puts a cap on a stock. 

And then the news hit the wires about the reverse merger, I have pasted it below for your reading pleasure.   GWAY proceeded to mount an extraordinary rally topping at $2.70 (at least as I write).  The investor who  bought $1,250 at $.05 this morning, is sitting on $68,750, how that for a days "work"?

These reverse mergers remain, as I have stated numerous times, the most lucrative trade in the penny stock market.  I have brought many to this blog the last few years, nothing of the 23,000% variety, but many 1,000% or better.  The again there is always a first time.
