Stock Picks

[mousey]

Ok the new quarter is within two weeks. For those who gamble on the stock market, you will remember my post from last quarter stating the following picks for the xmas season:

Ebay, Evergreen Solar, Sirius, and Taser - All stocks performed well this quarter. Ebay did its gradual growth. Taser had 3-4 big lawsuits dropped against them and went up 2$ from when I bought them. Sirius didn't pull it in as much as I had hoped. Then again, the earnings report from xmas come out in a few weeks so I am still waiting; its not down, it just isn't up. Evergreen solar went up 4$ from my suggested buy date.

So !! What are everyone else's picks this quarter? I am thinking the game market might produce some growth in the games publishing with ps3 and xbox 360 to start going into production. I haven't decided if Midway or TakeTwo is the better buy.

Home Depot looks tempting due to the signing deal of a major hardware company. I am still keeping my distance. Most people also recommend Apple, I am not keen on super expensive stocks like this.

Cypress ( owned by sun? ) is borderline buy for me.

So what are your thoughts?

interesting...nice to see that you are involved in that. i have an account

on ameritrade but didnt do anything too serious. Made a bad move with

Apple last year but had a good run with JetBlue and a biotech company....

are you intro currency trading by any chance? i trade on oanda.com and

have been testing my "strategies" on the game account since last spring

and plan on opening a real one.

let me know if you do that as well. maybe we can share some insights

MJ,


You have a famous person posting on this forum now..................... Warren Buffet.

I'm pretty sure it's not Warren, but his lesser known brother, All You Can Eat Buffet.

Given Buffet's limited exposure to the stock market and recommendation of index funds for the majority of investors it's a safe bet it's not him.

Drop Sirius and pick up XM. Sirius may be a good value now, but I think XM will produce good things over the long term.
