Right now in China, the expansion in smartphone use is creating a "Wild West," where the technology is developing faster than law enforcement can keep up, suggests Paul Goodwin, editor of Cabot China & Emerging Markets Report.
The good guys (law abiding mobile users) are being preyed up by the bad guys (hackers and scammers). And that, in a nutshell, is why there is a company called NQ Mobile (NQ).
The number of mobile subscriptions in China hit 1.2 billion in July, and a little more than a third of mobile subscribers are on 3G accounts.
That's made it a field day for designers of viruses, trojan horses, and malware of all kinds, with new threats appearing almost daily. But NQ Mobile, founded in 2005, has built its client base to 372 million registered accounts by making protection simple.
NQ Mobile is a very sophisticated watchdog for mobile devices. It's credited with identifying three out of every four new mobile threats worldwide and has an enormous database of viruses, malicious Web sites, and other scams, and can cure and protect users from all of them.

Advisors' Opinion:- [By Bryan Murphy]
To say that shares of IntelliCell BioSciences, Inc. (OTCMKTS:SVFC) has been disappointing since 2011 would be an understatement. SVFC has been an outright disaster since 2011, falling from a peak of $19.00 to a low of, well, just a few pennies as of late last year. In fact, there are those who are understandably wondering how the company is still alive, only producing about a half a million dollars in revenue in 2012, and then dialing that figure back down to nothing for the last few quarters. Yet, there's just something about a company that refuses to go away.... something compelling now.

Well, though I give myself a C for timing, it looks like I'm going to be able to give myself an A for stock-picking. Back on January 27th I deemed IntelliCell BioSciences, Inc. (OTCMKTS:SVFC) was a compelling buy, and though SVFC was stagnant for a month after that, it looks like the stock's finally getting on its horse. If you didn't get it then, you may want to get in now.
