Banking, Finance and Urban Affairs Committee in the U.S. House of Representatives. Within a year, while continuing his House Banking staff work, he became a senior speechwriter on the congressional Joint Economic Committee that included members of both the House and the Senate. It was during this period that Wynn became a special press aide to then-Sen.-elect Orin Hatch (R-Utah). Altogether, Wynn served on three full congressional committees and 11 House subcommittees between 1974 and 1978.

In 1977 Wynn married Paulette Lopapa, who convinced him to leave Capitol Hill and begin applying his considerable knowledge and legislative experience to the private sector. (She went on to be an invaluable partner in Jack Wynn & Co.) In 1978, he became public affairs director for the Manufactured Housing Institute, a Washington, D.C.-based trade group representing the $10-billion mobile and modular housing industry.

If ever there was an industry that needed to get its message out at that time, it was the nation's mobile home manufacturers. Their product suffered from many misconceptions. One of Wynn's first accomplishments was to arrange for three mobile homes to be shipped from Indiana to the District of Columbia, where the structures were installed on the U.S. Capitol steps. The tactic members of Congress, other government officials and the national press corps with an in-your-face opportunity to separate myth from the reality of "trailer" homes. The Institute captured the media spotlight coast-to-coast.

Wynn continues to bring the same tenacity to his job as a press agent, and today his reputation for obtaining results often precede him. In mid-1999, for example, the Forbes 2000 Campaign asked Wynn to be a co-chairman of Steve's Financial Committee, a distinguished group of 25 campaign fund-raisers located across the country. Forbes also selected Wynn as his National Small Business director. His responsibilities included tapping into the financial support of America's 10,000 small publicly-traded companies. Wynn's job was to harness the powerful fund-raising potential of this niche group to help advance Steve's political agenda, including sweeping tax reform.

As personally rewarding as Wynn's work was for Forbes, his first love remained championing small companies that otherwise probably would go largely unrecognized. "There are a lot of investor and financial relations firms plying their trade, but they tend to be weak when it comes to news-media placement," says Wynn. As a publicist and press agent, Wynn fills that void. His approach is subtle -- no flamboyance -- but the results speak for themselves.

Sneak Previews

I pick these special situations from those presented to me each month by my network of brokers, market makers, PR companies, investment bankers, venture capitalists, & key people in various industries. My primary criterion is my opinion of the stock's potential to double or better in the next six to 12 months. Once a Sneak, a company becomes a candidate for the "Situation of the Month" coverage in a future issue. Our decision concerning which to cover in a more detailed way is based on what we find in continuing investigation. I may give special attention to a Sneak I did a year ago, or one from the last issue; do not attach significance to timing.

I will, however, do updates on those Sneaks I continue to follow, either in the "Update Briefs" section of the newsletter, in e-mail updates (send me your e-mail address & I'll include you -- you may e-mail me at up415@aol.com), or in "Larry Oakley's Daily Comment" at WallStreetCorner. I suggest you go there daily.

Some Sneak candidates will be covered in "Larry Oakley's Opinion" or "Larry Oakley's Weekly Stock Pick" sections of WallStreetCorner. I suggest you check those two editorial venues each week.

While Sneaks are preliminary recommendations, do not use them for investment decisions unless you decide on the basis of facts you uncover in your own investigation. Use our "Financial Navigator" at WallStreetCorner to get more information on any stock. Keep in mind that the codes listed after each Sneak are preliminary, reflecting my first impression. They are subject to change based on further investigation.

Codes: At the end of each Sneak Preview & Update, there are three codes. They have a rating from 1 to 10. Those numbers reflect my personal opinion. Please -- do not take action based on my opinion alone. Do four things before taking action: (1) Read my original writeup to get an overall feel; (2) Get the latest 10-Q, 10-K, corporate profile, & news releases; you can access them at www.WallStreetCorner.com by using "Financial Navigator;" (3) Study them; & (4) Call a key member of management to get a final impression. If anything bothers you regarding that call, pass. There are lots of situations. Do not invest unless everything about a situation feels good to you.

"R" stands for "Risk Rating." A "1" means I view the situation as having an extreme amount of risk. A "10" means very low risk -- a much sounder, more financially stable situation. You'll see hardly any with a "1" or "10" rating. I chose "10" to mean lowest risk so the higher the number after each of the three codes, the more favorable the rating.

"M" stands for "Midterm Appreciation Potential." A "1" means I view the situation as having a small degree of midterm ("mid-term" is six to 12 months) potential. A "10" means really outstanding midterm potential.

"L" stands for "Long-term Appreciation Potential." A "1" means I view the situation as having a small degree of long-term ("long-term" is over one year) potential. A "10" means really outstanding long-term potential.

Disclaimer: The public companies featured in the Corporate Profiles listed in the "Special Situation" section on the Home Page of www.WallStreetCorner.com are our regular clients. Each such client pays an annual cash fee of $12,000, or alternatively, a monthly cash fee of $495 plus a negotiated number of Form 144 restricted shares for our service. We on rare occasions accept free-trading shares, but we usually hold such shares for the long pull - we do not engage in trading. Such fees are disclosed as part of the Corporate Profile prepared and posted on the particular company involved. The basic coverage provided to such clients primarily includes the preparation of their Corporate Profile, posting it here at WallStreetCorner.com, and the distribution of email alerts to our international database of investors and financial professionals when their Profile is initially posted, and each time their Profile is subsequently updated. We expect our clients to work with us in a team effort by calling us each time they have achieved a significant milestone. We then update their Profile and issue an additional email alert to our totally opt-in email database (as of July 2008, members of that database are from over 96 countries). The email distributions we make are a key element of our service -- those, as well as the updated Corporate Profile are what together are designed to achieve a gradual buildup of new shareholders who generally hold for the long term. If you are an officer at a public company and want the exposure afforded at WallStreetCorner.com, email Larry at up415@aol.com or call him at 843-645-2729. Information displayed by WallStreetCorner in its Corporate Profiles, and in its editorial or other columns, does not constitute an offer to buy, sell, or trade a security of any kind, including stock. Larry Oakley, and/or WallStreetCorner.com, Inc., does not recommend that any person, institution, or other entity make any decisions or form any opinions, etc. based on the information on this site. All visitors to this site are urged to do two things before investing in any stock: (1) Call the company and ask questions -- if there is anything you do not like regarding such call, pass -- our goal is to bring you a selection of what we feel are growth situations with good long-term appreciation potential, but you must accept the responsibility of making your own decisions regarding which situations to invest in -- do not give up that responsibility; and (2) Consult a qualified financial professional before taking any actions in regards to buying, selling, or trading securities (stocks or other forms of equity). Companies covered in Conservative Speculator, a newsletter accessed from WallStreetCorner, or in any of Larry Oakley's other editorial venues ("Opinion," "Stock Pick," "Comment," and "Bold Ventures" columns, and in any other editorial venue to which Larry contributes) do not pay for such editorial coverage; the companies Larry covers editorially have never, do not now, and never will be charged for editorial coverage. The only paid portions of WallStreetCorner.com are the Profiles and email distributions (email distributions are a part of the client's package, but occasionally are paid for separately by non-clients - if a non-client wants to utilize our email distributions, the cost is $2,000 for the first distribution, $1,500 for the second, $1,000 for the third, and $500 for all subsequent distributions made for the same company). On occasion, Larry Oakley shares his opinion regarding a private company or its product or service. Bear in mind that nothing at that special section is an investment possibility.
