While J.C. Penney (NYSE: JCP) and Walmart�(NYSE: WMT) have run ads in newspapers and online around the country to get shoppers through their doors in a desperate attempt to take market share from one another during what has promises�to be a mediocre holiday season, the executives at Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) have posted their Thanksgiving and Black Friday specials online.

Among these products are one Pack of “Shocking Gum, Funny Shock Gag (Random Color)” for $.97 which is much less than gum bought in a store. For people with nothing to read, for $.99 for Kindle owners, “1st Chance” by Elizabeth Nelson. How can Amazon sell used versions of 1-25 Dot-to-Dots (A Get Ready Book, Ages 4-6) for $.01. Shipping must be extra. Used versions of “Butterfly Notebook” by Sovak also cost only $.01.� Also for children, for free,� “4 Pics 1 Word Puzzle by Epic Pixel”.

I hate to be the one to say I told you so, but, I told you so. Back on February 26th I suggested IsoRay, Inc. (NYSEMKT:ISR) shares were a budding breakout play. The 48% rally that's played out for ISR in the meantime unfurled right on cue. While overbought in the very short run, this small cap stock looks like it's earning the right to be compared to the likes of bigger brothers in the cancer-treatment space... names like Roche Holding Ltd. (OTCMKTS:RHHBY) or Theragenics Corporation (NYSE:TGX).
