New York, December 06, 2013 /Accesswire/ - Market Buzz Report, a leading penny stock newsletters provider, issues major news alert for InterOil Corporation (USA)(NYSE:IOC), Geron Corporation(NASDAQ:GERN), Amazon.com, Inc.(NASDAQ:AMZN), ZIOPHARM Oncology Inc.(NASDAQ:ZIOP).

InterOil Corporation (USA)(NYSE:IOC) is halted after falling 21% premarket on news of the sale of a 61.3% stake in its Papua New Guinea gas fields to Total (TOT) for as much as $3.6B, as the clarity of the deal is questioned.The press release issued by IOC reads little like the one issued by TOT: Total says depending on the results of the delineation of the Elk and Antelope gas fields, "this could lead to a final investment decision by 2016 for the development of the fields and the construction of a liquefaction plant located onshore on the Gulf of Papua."

Shares of Geron Corporation(NASDAQ:GERN) are up 9% in premarket trading.Behind the move looks to be an article outlining a Mayo Clinic study which says imetelstat "has been found to induce morphologic, molecular, and clinical remissions in some patients with myelofibrosis."The study's lead author calls the results "early but promising."Amusingly, the article appears to have been posted ahead of its scheduled release from embargo.

Amazon.com, Inc.(NASDAQ:AMZN) is set to significantly increase the fees it charges merchants for selling via its Webstore platform. As of Feb. 4, subscription fees will rise to $79/month for both merchants selling only on their site, and those selling both on their site and Amazon; they respectively paid $40/month and no subscription fee before. In addition, the transaction fee charged to the latter group will double to 2%.Amazon has already carried out a string of fee hikes for its on-site fulfillment services. But while merchants have griped, the hikes haven't yet halted Amazon's share gains against EBAY and other rivals. 3rd-party sales accounted for 40% of Amazon's Q3 paid units, and are a relatively high-margin business. AllThingsD reports the AmazonFresh grocery delivery service could launch in San Francisco on Tuesday. AmazonFresh, which helps act as a foundation for Amazon's same-day delivery efforts, launched in L.A. earlier this year, and might soon launch in NYC. No drones for now.
