:POWN) "Lightspeed" staring Lee Majors, and the "Who Wants to be a Superhero?" reality show, POWN's stock appears to be strengthening as bid supports showed a significant tightening of the spread all last week. Friday's trading, with only a one cent spread, had no shareholders willing to sell at the bid and all shares traded were from buyers purchasing at the ask price. This is a good indicator that the stock is now positioned for a potential breakout, and SIS continues with a firm strong buy rating for POWN.
